Okay, I feel dumb asking this, but I need some reassurance or something. I woke up this morning to some light bleeding. I am 39 weeks. This is normal right? Meaning I am probably going into labor pretty soon? Vs something is wrong right? Baby is active. I have been losing my mucous plug (sometimes tinged with blood) but this is more like spotting. No real contractions yet, but they were semi regular last night (every 5-7 minutes for 2 hours, but I feel asleep and they went away).

Have a midwife appt at 9, so I can probably wait till then right?

ETA: I didn't have any of this until like 8cm with DS. Hopefully I am not somehow magically 8cm and having a baby in my bathroom.

My doctor wasn't concerned unless it got heavier.

Having babies is kind of annoying when it comes to symptoms of labor. I google and the internet is like you could go into labor in a few hours OR days. Well, thanks internet. ha ha.

Ha, well I am hoping it won't be very long since this is the second.

My first was 27 hours, so shorter than that would be nice.

You might be okay to wait until your appt but I would start preparing for active labor.

Isn't that the worst? I would think duh, I'm almost 41 weeks pregnant. Odds are good they I'll have a baby sometime in the next 7 days, LOL.

Good luck!

Good Luck! My first labor was 27 hours so I am curious to see how long your second one is.

Amen to that. I am not quite 37 weeks (DD came at 38 weeks) and I keep thinking every little change could mean I am going into labor soon (in reality, it's probably just all the discomforts and annoyances that come along with being 37 weeks pregnant).

Hope your midwife is able to give you some good news and this is it for you!
