| I lost mine last night, nothing yet. How long did it take to go into labor after losing your mucus plug? |

| Lost mine around 8pm, started feeling slight waves around 1am. Contractions were 8 minutes apart around 7am. Baby was born at 4pm. |

| About 48 hours iirc (x 2 pregnancies) |

| First pregnancy lost it in the middle of the night and water broke in the morning. Second pregnancy I lost very small bits of mucus for 2 days before labor started. Never saw the entire plug. |

| I lost mine between 2-3am. I began getting contractions at around 10am. Got to the hospital at 2pm and was 4.5 cm dilated. Baby was born at 830pm. |

| A few days later I had an induction. Does that count? |

| A week later my water broke, and labor started shortly after that. |

Same. A nurse actually told me they can regenerate, so don't get too excited. |

| Several days. Maybe a full week? I'd have to check my journal, but I know it wasn't anywhere close to immediate. |
