Okay, so I thought I was losing my mucous plug...but it's not "clear & gelatinous." It's brownish, thick and mucous-y looking. I haven't had sex in ages or any internal exams so I know it's not from that, and it doesn't look like blood. It's not green so I don't think it's meconium...anyone have an idea of what it is? And do I need to call my dr./L & D?

Not all are clear or gellousy(sp)
Some are brown blood tinged, some are more snot like, some are pink tinged

I would call your dr !!! Why not? Because you are there and it could be!!! Rest up hun cuz you could be having your baby very soon If you go into labor sooner, will they do a c/s still?

I was able to get in touch w/ the nurse of the OB on call (my dr.'s not in today). She said it was my plug but as long as I'm not contracting every 5 min. I'm fine. If that happens I'm to go to L & D right away. Being that we're far from the hospital & this is my 2nd pregnancy, I'd probably consider going in sooner if I have regular cx that aren't as close together if they are the real thing.

Yes, they will still do the c-sec. if I go into labor on my own, which I am so thankful for. I cannot fathom risking any more damage to my girlie parts. I guess the exception would be if I went into labor too quickly but hopefully that won't happen.

I'm hoping I can still make it to the 18th. I am going to put my shopping stuff away, take a nap and then hopefully try to get some things taken care of. Then I will call Brant to give him an update.
