| I am 40 weeks pregnant. In the last two days I had a little red mucus and this evening I had a penny-size red spot on my underwear. Do you think I am close to labor? Four days ago I was 2-3 cm dilated and 60% effaced. |

| Could it be you are starting to lose your mucus plug? |

| It could mean that you are losing your plug or that you are dilating a bit more. |

| 40 weeks? Yes, you are very close to labor. Congrats |

| Sounds like you are losing your plug, which is a sign that your body is preparing for labor. Good luck and best wishes for an easy labor and delivery! |
