Close to labor? Mucus plug? Help!?
Hello everyone. I'd like to see what you guys think about this. First off, im a first time due 9/20/13 with a baby girl. I'm 39w2d as of right now. Anyways, at 36 weeks I had my 1st cervical exam and it hurt SO bad because I wasn't dilated at all, but starting to thin. That night a few hours after that I went to pee and had bloody mucus on the toilet paper. First time I ever noticed it but I figured it was where she checked me. Nothing ever came of it and it went away. Since then I've had 2 more checks and as of 3 days ago (my last check) I'm all the way thin and 2cm. I didn't bleed after my 38 week exam at all, but I noticed it after the last one and again, I figured it was from her checking me, but unlike the others it hasn't stopped. EVERYTIME I use the bathroom, bloody mucus is always there. The color of the blood keeps changing from bright red to brown, to orange to pink, back to red, so on. 3 days of straight blood in the discharge. Once yesterday it was enough to where mucus dropped into the toilet on its own which it's never done (im sorry if this is TMI) Also I've felt watery clear discharge coming out too. Almost enough to feel running out, and it leaves clear, odorless spots in my undies. I've also been having mild period like cramps for 3 days. They didnt hurt until this morning, they were just enough to be bothersome and let you know they're there. Today they're worse. I did some reading and I think I'm losing my mucus plug in stages instead of one big clump like some women. What do you guys think? I already know "it could be anytime now" and "i only have a few weeks anyways" Serious replies only please. Labor soon?

1 AnswerPregnancy8 years agoCould I go into labor soon?
Hey guys. So I'm just curious if all you moms out there think I may go into labor soon. I just turned 21 last week and I'm 38 weeks pregnant today with my 1st baby (it's a girl!) My due date is September 20. My doctor isn't the BEST in the world, she doesn't really talk to me much about what's going on with the baby or anything. Anyways, 2 weeks ago she did a cervical check (which HURT) and she said I wasn't dilated any but I was starting to thin. Afterwards i had no spotting or bleeding at all. She skipped the check last week for some reason, but yesterday I went back for my appointment and she checked (which didn't hurt half as bad as the first time) and said I was all the way thinned out and dilated to 1cm! We left the doctors at 4:30 and around 8:30 I went to pee, and wiped and there was about a quarter size of mucus streaked bright red with blood, and on another section of the paper there was just a little brown mucus. I looked it up in my book and online. The book said that may be my "bloody show" and Labor isn't far away, but online everyone was saying it was just from where she checked me. Like I said, it didnt hurt half as bad this time and I didn't bleed at all last time... I tried to ignore it but this afternoon I went to pee and there was a dime size of brown mucus waiting for me in my underwear! This HAS to be my bloody show right? Surely I wouldn't still be bleeding from a check yesterday? Also I've had a sudden burst of energy and urge to clean the last week and I DO NOT like to clean, so I guess I'm nesting, but I feel HORRIBLE today! What do you guys think? Bloody show and labor soon or false alarm from my check?

2 AnswersPregnancy8 years agoCould I possibly be pregnant?
Ok, I was on birth control, but it started making me sick, so i got off of it for a while and the doctor prescribed me a new one. The pharmacy messed up and gave me the OLD one again, but I cant take it! Me and my boyfriend have had unprotected sex, and yes he has cummed in me. We went 2 weeks without sex because he was tired from work, and started doing it again. He cummed in me once, and pulled out once. The last time was 2 days ago. Starting about 2 weeks ago I started being SO exhausted to the point where I slept 12 hours, woke up for 2, couldnt stand it any longer, went back to sleep for 6 and was STILL exhausted. Sleeping doesnt make it any better, it actually kind of gets worse. Eating makes it a little better, but not much. My stomach is bloated very badly, im constipated with dark stool. Also some of you may not believe in signs, but Ive been having dreams about babies, woke up today and the first thing i see on tv is a baby, first 3 stories on facebook were about babies. Im not sure what is making me so tired, maybe its anemia or somthing like that? I just need to know if you all think this sounds like possible pregnancy. I would only be 3 weeks along at MOST.
2 AnswersPregnancy9 years agoWhy am I always so tired?!?
Just recently, I started noticing I wasnt resting well and that I was more tired than usual. Last week it got worse. Example: I slept 12 hours, woke up, was up for 2, couldnt stand it any longer and went back to sleep for 6, woke up and was STILL exhausted. It gets a little bit better after I eat, but then I get tired again! Its like ill have a good day where i dont have to take a nap, and then the next day I have to sleep ALL day. There is no energy there at all even after resting, and the funny part is I dont do anything! Im a stay at home housewife. 20 years old. Something seems off to me. My mother has thyroid problems and her twin sister is anemic. Maybe its somthing in the family? What do you guys think? Total lack of energy even after resting.
5 AnswersOther - Diseases9 years ago2000 Ford Taurus Air Conditioner Problem?
I just bought my 2000 Ford Taurus exactly a month ago today from a used car dealer. It had just had its 90,000 mile tune up and they replaced the belts, brakes, tires, etc. Im not sure if its just me, but im a person that doesnt like to run my AC alot bc it uses gas and money is tight, so i usually just run the fan. Yesterday I was in the drive thru and it just got TOO hot for me so I turned on the AC. My whole car would shake for 5ish seconds and then stop for 5, shake for 5, stop for 5. It literally felt like the bottom was going to fall out of my car. It scared me so I turned it off and went back to the fan. On the way home it smelled like somthing was burning, smelled REALLY hot, and the car wasnt driving right! It almost felt like i would give it gas, but it wouldnt go. I told my mom about it and when i showed her what I was talking about, we went to the mechanics. They said it sounded like it was cycling, whatever that means, and it could be a freon problem. Theyre going to run a test on it, and itll be $200+, Could anyone tell me what they think the problem might be? I really hope the dealership wasnt dishonest with me about the condition of the car :(
3 AnswersFord9 years agoSick Dragon Goby? Help :(?
Ok, so a few months ago my mom bought my little brother a little 1.5 gallon fishtank at walmart as a suprise. She got 8 platys, a black snail, some kind of little catfish, and my brother picked out a Dragon Goby bc he thought they were cool -.- While my brother was taking care of them the snail, catfish and a platy all died so naturally I started taking care of them bc I have such a big heart for animals and I want them to be treated right, even if they are just fish <3 Anyways, My platys are doing fine, but ive noticed the Goby is SO thin. All he does is lay on the bottom curled up. Every now and then he will swim around to find a new spot to lay, thats it. IVE NEVER EVER SEEN HIM EAT. Tonight I changed the water bc it was all yellow and nasty looking. (I change it about once a week, and put that crap that makes tap water safe in there) he started swimming REAL fast to the surface, but once his nose got out of the water he went back down. He did it for about 5 mins. I thought maybe he was hungry so I put some food in there and he didnt even care :( I know it sounds bad but sometimes I cant even tell if hes alive and it breaks my heart. Is there anything I can do to help him or is that just the way they are?
1.5 Gallon freshwater tank
Tetramin Tropical Flakes
There is a small filter in the tank.
Ive been thinking about getting a heater but they seen to be doing fine without one.
Should I get him a new kind of food like brine shrimp or algae wafers? But i dont wanna buy it if he's gonna waste it -.- Kinda on a budget.
3 AnswersFish9 years agoHow much Un-Employment would I get?
Hi :) I work at Kmart and have been there for 6 months, making $7.25 an hour. Recently, Alot of talk has been circulating that they are looking for ANY reason to get rid of emloyees. I went to check my schedule yesterday and saw they had me working ONE DAY, for 5 hours. That was it. 5 hours isnt enough to pay for CRAP. I asked about it and they basically told me "We cut you to 5 hours because we want YOU to quit. If we fire you, we have to pay un-enemployment" So, my question is, if they do fire me without me finding a new job first, How do I get un-employment, when will it take effect, how much should it pay, and how long will it last? Thanks :)
1 AnswerLaw & Legal9 years agoIs my Platy fish a cannibal?
I bought 8 Platy fish the other day. The day after I put them in the tank, I noticed a little orange thing swimming around. After I looked, I noticed it was a baby. It was so cute! I watched it for a sec hoping it wouldnt get sucked up in the filter then all of the sudden, one of the adult platy's ate it o_o Is that a normal thing for them to do? And will I have any more babies in the future? :D
5 AnswersFish9 years agoWhats wrong with my dog?
My lab is 6 months old. Yesterday afternoon she was fine, but yesterday evening we noticed she was just laying in her dog house and wouldnt come out. I saw her throw up and she wouldnt eat. Today shes even worse. All she does is lay at her water bowl and drink and drink. She barely has enough energy to walk and her eyes look so sad and lethargic. I got her out and tried to feed her, but she refused and didnt even have the energy to walk back to her pen. I had to carry her. When I put her down she threw up and shes slobbering alot. If she isnt better by tommorrow were taking her to the vet. I just dont know what it could be. Its not antifreeze because the rest of our dogs would be sick. Any ideas?
5 AnswersDogs10 years agoWhat kind of snake is this?
I was up in eastern Kentucky and my dad came out of the building where we keep the horse feed with a little snake on a stick. It was brown with darker brown stripes. We held it carefully and it didnt bite, but when we set it down it kinda snapped at us. Right now were keeping it in a bucket because were not sure what kind it is. Could you maybe help me determine what type of snake we have on our hands?
P.s. Im not sure whether this helps or not but the building often has alot of water leakage so its really hot and humid in there.
5 AnswersReptiles1 decade agoStrange things going on with my vagina, HELP.?
Im 18 and just became sexually active, and have been having sex often for the last couple of weeks. A few days ago i got up to pee and my urine had a very very strong bacony odor. Later that day i noticed an excess amount of mucus in my panties and i was concerned. I was so worried, i used a mirror to look the next time i peed and a giant stream of white mucus came pouring out like a flood. It soaks through my panties and stains my sheets at night its so bad. This morning i looked and it had a little blood in it but it didnt flow out, it kinda ran out and hung there for a while then dropped in the toilet. Im really scared. I dont know what this could be and i cant tell my mom without her knowing ive had sex. Whats going on with my body?
