A member asked:
Is having a bloody show a good sign that labour is on the way within a couple of days at 39 weeks pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Bloody show is a good sign that your cervix is softening and opening, but we cannot narrow it down to "a couple of days". Unfortunately, there's no way to predict how much longer it will be. But you are going in the right direction!
