Whts the difference from mucas plug and discharge while pregnant??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Much: The mucous plug is usually referred to when a woman is close to going into labor and this is released as the cervix begins to dilate. This looks like a glob and may have a little blood in it. Other discharge can be clear, or colored, usually white or off white. Colored discharge of yellow, hey or green may mean an infection is present. If it is white and it itches, you may also have a yeast or BV
