Quoting ☀Ali☀:“ oh damn! no kidding! your not there yet??? How do you feel? Is anything happening? I still have a couple ... [snip!] ... but Im wondering, when does the "baby drop?" and what is the "bloody show?" (sorry, i dont know what that is yet..... )  ”

the baby can usually drop around 32 weeks, or anytime after...but most people dont usually feel it. people told me they could tell but i couldnt until it got REALLY close to my due date,she felt so heavy lol!

Bloody show is just a little bit of bloody discharge that comes out right before you go into labor,it's not a lot of blood,but enough to be kind of scary!Babies usually drop around 32ish weeks I think-although with second babies and on they don't usually drop until labor starts up.
Nothing seems to be happening for me and I have tried everything-I ate an entire pineapple tonight even,lol!I just hink about my last labor when I start getting impatient,and the fac that it was 2 days long-and I'm usually okay with still being pregnant after that,lol!

you are due before me, so it could be your bloody show... also it could be similar to how you can spot after an internal exam at this point. Had you already lost your plug? if it's part of your plug with the bloody show that could explain the clot appearence. If you're worried call L&D

I would say check with L&D you shouldnt be bleeding enough to fill a pad in an hour if you do then you need to go to the hospital but if not its prolly just from having sex that happens when you are as close to being due as you are.

I just went and woke my mom up to ask her...she said basically same thing. That this happens because I'm so close and the sex thing probably caused it. She said if it gets heavy, to call the doctor and wake her up again...

[she's a nurse with 2 kids...lol that's why i asked her]

But I think I'm going to go lay down and we'll just wait and see what happens! Thanks for all your input ladies.

i had the same thing not too long ago..but no clotting...its just that we're close to being in labor that your cervix is sensitive and brused... i have noticed that if i'm on top thats when i bleed... but your fine unless its real red and heavy like a period...then go to l&d..other then that your fine... just mention it to your dr next visit..

i lost my mucus plug about 3 weeks before I went into labor but I lost mine after sex & it was bloody & clot like. But if you don't feel safe about it then call labor & delivery they will examine you to make sure its fine. Sometimes you will bleed alittle because your extremely tender there. Ironicly I also went into labor after having sex as well water broke 4 hours later after doing it & I wasn't dialated yet.
