Unfortunately, losing the mucous plug does not ensure that labor will be shortly to follow. Watch for increasing contractions (intensity, frequency and duration) and bloody show. Those are better signs that labor is starting. Good luck :) Hope you have a smooth labor & delivery!

im just past 38 weeks and have been losing a little bit each day for the last few days. if you lost your whole plug that probably means sooner than later!

I went into labor both times 24 hrs after losing the plug.  However many women lose it weeks earlier.  How far along are you?
