mucus plug 23w

Hi ladies, ive been losing what i assume is my mucus plug since about 21w now, just a little bit here and there everyday, its looks like snotty discharge. theres no blood and it happens at random not just after having sex, is this something i should worry about ?

If it's greenish you should call your doc it could be an infection. Someone else just had a question about greenish discharge and that's what all the responses were. But mucus plugs just grow back if your body isn't ready to have the baby, it could just mean your cervix is opening some. Everyone dilates differently!

Well if it is your mucus plug it'll just regrow but during pregnancy you also get a lot more discharge to clean the birth canal! With my son I had a very snoty, whitish discharge from the day I found out I was pregnant to the day i delievered him!
