Hi Ladies

I'm relatively new here so please forgive me if this topic has been covered before. I am pregnant for the first time and am 38 weeks today. Over the last day or so I have noticed very small amounts of clear CM. Would this be part of your plug or just something that happens around this time?

I am soooo heavy and sooo over being pregnant at the moment. I've had an excellent pregnancy (touch wood) with no real problems. I'm just not a very tall person and I feel so completely UGGGHHH.... that I'm dying for this baby to come so am looking for signs! Probably those that aren't there yet.

Another thing I am experiencing (outside extremely excrutiatingly painful hips of a night time, 5+ loo break get ups and lack of sleep) is that I can hardly walk due to really bad pain in my pubic area. This has only come about today though (well the more painful part of it). It feels like I have been repeatedly kicked 'there'. Has anyone experienced this?

Some advice/reassurance/opinions would be grateful!

Thanks
Vicki

I am new too so still learning how to do everything, I had the same painful pelvic area and hips when I was about 5 weeks from delivery. I would sleep on about 8 pillows to keep my head propped up - it was the only way I could keep the pain down.
I also had alot of CM towards the end, it sounds like it could be the beginnings of the plug coming out, although they do say that it has streaks of fresh blood in it. I wore panty liners through most of the end of the pregancy - some women leak amniotic fluid for last few weeks too.

I was so glad when my little man finally came out (38 weeks and 5 days)after weeks and weeks of wishing, the time goes so fast now I don't know whether I am coming or going!

Good luck for the next few weeks/days!!
