I'm so sorry, this is really gross!
Hi everyone,
I'm so embarresed to ask you guys about this but could never ask anyone else.
Its about discharge! Nice!
Throughout my pregnancy my discharge has increased slightly but I have been experiencing a lot in the past 10 days, now i'mstarting to wonder if its anything to do with the 'mucous plug'?
Its clear, no blood in it, but its the consistency of a mix between snot and semen! I'm sooooo sorry! Its not every time I go to the loo but happens several times a day.
Whats made me think it might be something to do with the 'show' is that I went to Sainsburys (to buy all their half price baby stuff - thanks lauren and lola!) and since i've been home i've started getting period type pains and back ache, its been happening for about hour and half and getting more uncomfortable.
I have had shooting pains, which feel like someone pushing knitting needles in me, for the past 10 days too, and one was so sharp that nearly fell over in the middle of Debenhams! SO embarresing!
I've also had aches in my groin for about a month.
Are any of these good signs that I might not be waiting much longer or does this just happen to everyone.
Also i've been meaning to as. Is it normal to have never had any Braxton Hicks?!
Thank you soooo much girls!

It's just been the last few weeks that it's been like that but no blood at all - I think it's quite common as you get to the last stages of pregnancy. Lovely!
As for the aches & pains, I'm not sure - it could be because Ruby has now changed position and her heavy little head is now resting on your pelvis, especially as she starts to engage. I've had lots more aches low down in the last 2wks particularly (& feeling heavier lower down) so I wasn't at all surprised when the MW told me today that baby was 3/5 xx

Will keep you posted.
It sounds like its pretty normal and nothing toget excited about then. noooooooooooo! I'm sooo impatient!
Oh and yes, thank you, we found my notes and they did the scaN! Hubby had put them in with all his paperwork and in the boot of his car. he felt so guilty!

The period-like pains you described, was exactly how both my labours started and my girls (2yrs 2m & 3m) were born 15hrs & 16hrs respectively, after my first twinges!
All the best if you haven't delivered yet, and Congratulations if you have!

I still haven't had her!
The pains were really bad last night though and ended up in the bath at stupid o'clock in the morning which helped a bit.
I really don't feel quite right and feel like something is happening but I guess i'll have to wait. Noooooo!
Hopefully it will be soon if thats how your labours started!
Thank you for your reply! xxxxxxx
