Bloody show & labor?

Ok just for fun....

How long after you lost your plug or had bloody show, did you go into labor??

I lost my plug (no show) 3wks before my due date with my first child and still had to be induced.

With my second child I lost what was left of my plug (it came out in small peices for weeks before that) along with bloody show 3 days before I went into labor.

I know everyone is different so I'd like to see the differences!

I'm 38wk today, 3cm dialated and lost the rest of my plug with bloody show this morning so I'm trying to keep my mind occupied! LOL

    With my first I lost it about a week before I went into labor. With my second I lost it 3 weeks before I was induced. With my third I lost it about a week before he came. With my 4th I finished losing it after the doctor did a sweep and was induced 4 days later. But if you are 3 cm dilated already, I think you'll go into labor within the next couple of days. The hospitals normally admits you when you're 4 cm. Good luck and congratulations! May you have an easy birth and beautiful, healthy baby!

    My third was the only one where I experienced either. I lost most of my plug about a week before my daughter was born (which kind of freaked me out since it had never happened before). I was sure I'd be having the baby that night. But then it was at least five days before the real thing. I lost more of my plug and had bloody show only an hour before she was born. We barely made it to the hospital!

    It sounds like it won't be long for you now! Good luck, and enjoy number three!

    I had the bloody show just like 2 days before I went into labor. Everybody is different, thats tough for anyone to answer that for sure. I would call my doctor and see what the doctor has to say

    Actually the morning I lost my plug within an hour I went into labor.

    I've had six and only actually noticed the bloody show with my 4th it was about 36 hours after I lost it that I went into labour.
