Critical Period: Embryology As is well known, a certain organ arises much earlier or later in the embryo than certain others.
How soon after my mucus plug passes will labor begin? Passing a mucus plug is a sign that your cervix is dilating and that your body is preparing for birth. Labor could be hours, days, or even weeks away as the cervix gradually opens. The mucus plug is usually clear, slightly pink or blood tinged in color. It can be stringy mucus or a sticky discharge.
all sex will do for you after your mucus plug does come out is possibly induce labor :) and when you do lose your plug, you might not even know for sure... it can come out as a glob, be pink, white, yellowish green, (which IS okay and NOT a sign of infection unless its accompanied by foul smell and you have a fever)
