lost mucus plug but no pain

Is it possible to lose parts or your whole mucus plug but have no pain and go into labor days or weeks later?

It can look different by person but it has about the same consistency of thick mucus. My first plug I lost had bloody showing so it looked like mucus mixed with some brown. This time around it just looks like a yellowy thick mucus. If you really want to know how it looks like I suggest a Google search. A lot of women have posted pictures on blogs to help other mothers.

How does mucus plug look like ? Is it milky white or with bloody tinged in it? Cause i had some whitish discharge 2 days ago and my back was aching but no pain or contractions in tummy , so i was wondering if it was mucus plug or what? And i still dont have any pain , ftm and 35wk 6days

I noticed it with my first but I was already in labor. Earlier I went to the bathroom and I noticed something similar and even looked online (it's been six years since I had my first so I needed a refresher sorry if it's tmi). Sure enough it looked like a mucus plug.

I've never heard of the mucus plug coming out to cause pain. When i was pregnant wih my son i had no clue, i wiped and there it was. And this pregnancy i have no clue as to if it fell out or not. So you may not even notice if you lose it.

Yes, with my first I lost mine I think at least a wk before I had her and I was induced so no clue on when she really would of come on her own.
