    I would wait and tell your doctor at your next visit. Losing your mucus plug doesn't always mean you are going into labor, it can happen several weeks before labor starts. If you start spotting or if your mucus plug was tinged with blood you may just want to call and tell the doctor so they have a heads up. That usually means labor is closer.

    Your mucous plug goes to be thick and it is going to pop out sparingly, now not unexpectedly. Depending on how a lot you might have dilated, expelling the mucous plug does not always imply that you're approximately to enter exertions. It implies that you're thinning on the cervix, in an effort to aid you to dilate at a faster fee. At 35 weeks you must be attending health practitioner's visits each and every 2 weeks. Unless you're having any cramping or discomfort, then you definitely rather should not have something to fear approximately. Good Luck!

    Assuming you're not in a high

    Risk pregnancy, I would say it can wait until your next appointment unless you start bleeding bright red, are having regular contractions, or your water has broken. I lost mine about a month before I went into labor & delivered our 2nd child (12/13/10). My due date was 12/14/10.
