Bloody show?!

Okay soooo. My boyfriend and I have been pretty sexually active throughout my pregnancy. We're used to the typical spotting after sex and normally I think nothing of it. Welp, today, at 40 weeks we decided to DTD to see if we could stir anything up...and since I've been having this bloody, mucus-like, nothing like normal spotting discharge and I'm curious, is this my bloody show?!? I never experienced anything like this with my first! I've been on and off crampy all day, but nothing serious. My last appointment (a week ago tomorrow) I was 3cms dilated. Could labor possibly, FINALLY be starting?! Lol!!! I have an appointment tomorrow, so this is more so just a curious question to anyone who has experienced the bloody show. Any input would be awesome!

It's def my bloody show! I'm now 4cms and still leaking grossness. My doctor said its normal but I think it's disgusting lol! I have no consistent contractions though ): so I'm pretty sure this baby is never coming out and I'm just gonna feel like I peed my pants every time I move! Hahahaha

My bloody show was hardly noticable and it was mixed with clear mucous. Not a lot of mucous but enough to make me realize something was happening ! Sure enough more mucous started coming out throughout the day then a kind of big chunk, 11 hours later my water broke.  It all happeend so fast! Never felt cramping with it though so you may be close to labor!
