How long after bloody show did labour start?

Hey ladies I had lots of painful period cramping last night and this morning I've had my bloody show. The cramps have now stopped (I'm 37+4 btw). I was just wondering for those of you that had their bloody show how soon afterwards did your labour start? Getting impatient now 🤣

So if it's been regular cramping I'd ring triage just in case. I lost my mucus plug and then had cramping start and fairly swiftly gave birth at home (unplsnned) 😅I was 41 weeks though so you can loose your bloody show/mucus plug weeks before xxx

@Cat oh wow you had a at home birth unplanned ? If you don’t mind me asking is this because things were moving quickly ? Congratulations ❤️ x

@Halima yes, I was induced the first time round so was just being majorly naive. Was at a cafe at 130 when I'd experienced some mild period pains with my mum and son. Then got home at 230 and could barely speak. Had the baby as the midwives, para.edics showed up st 330 😅had lost my mucus plug gradually from the night before but no other signs until about 130. Was second baby so possibly why it was so quick! Had to go to hospital as Had a tear but home now and all good 😊

First baby you was induced and second labour came on naturally? This gives me hope because my first only waters broke and second I was induced 😂 so really hoping for things to kick start naturally. Well done, sounds like you were super strong powering through x
