membrane sweep

Hiya girls for anyone whos had a sweep yesterday was my first ever sweep so im no 100% sure what really happens if it works or not i got mine around 6/7pm at the hospital and was sent back home... but the thing is im getting like a thick white dischargy substance on my underwear and the only reason i know its white is because im wearing black underwear today ive actually just noticed it because im not long back from the loo :/ the white substance is NOT jelly like or runny. What is this?? X

    shaz with my 1st i had 2 sweeps, 1st time the sweep did nothing apart from back ache i was 1-2 cm when they did the 1st sweep, and 2nd sweep was a week later i was still 1-2 cm but with in a few hours i had gone to 3-4 cm.

    the discharge could be the plug starting to come away if u have not lost it yet or it could just be vaginal discharge

    It's a good sign I'm having this now and I'm almost 36 weeks but I did lose waters at 32 weeks so was told I could go early on my own if not induced at 37 weeks so not long to wait to find out what's going on xx

    It sounds like your plug is starting to go (also referred to as a show) hope you haven't got too much longer to wait & hope your labour goes smoothly
