Chelsea,

I don't think this is your mucus plug. You said that you think you have been losing it since about 13 weeks. Usually when a woman loses her mucus plug, labour will start fairly soon after. I assume you have had a 20 week scan. Surely something would have been spotted then if there was a problem.

Like the other girls have said, the body does have an increase in vaginal discharge in pregnancy.

I am sure you are just fine - but if you are really concerned, you should see GP.

Your vaginal discharge does change during pregnancy aswell. It can be thick sometimes - even different colours, but I wouldn't worry, I don't think it's your mucous plug. Your mucous plug is like snot - and the colour can vary, usually you get blood mixed with mucous before you have your baby, and the mucous can be green, white-ish, a bunch of different colours.

this is my 5th baby, and I have yet to notice losing my mucus plug. I am one of those women who always has loads of c/m and it is worse when pg. I wouldn't know it if I saw it. I don't think you really need to worry about it though. If it was a problem, your dr. would have said something. I never even think about it! Maybe I am just too flighty to pay attention.

If you're losing yours, I'm losing mine too, as I've had exactly the same as you've said.

I doubt it is hunnie, more times than anything else the plug is a off colour when it comes away. And like the ladies said, labour starts soon after, usually up to 48 hrs.
