A member asked:
Can u dialate without loosing mucus plug?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The mucus plug isn't always identifiable by either patients or physicians. It is not a reliable sign of labor by any means. So it isn't helpful to focus on the recognition of this to guide you in labor process.
