If your worried, call the doctor. Its there role, and its your role to look out for the health of your baby. You would and they would regret it if something happened that you could have prevented. Ive always thought the mucous type plug was only to come before labour, but im not sure. Your best to check. Dont worry about sounding silly, i phone my doctor every 2 days without a doubt

Good luck and im sure everythings fine. x
