   From what I’ve heard, the mucous plug is quite solid. Not liquid. I think you’d know it if you’d seen it. Good luck! Congrats!

   The plug may have a bit of blood in it.

   Loosing the mucous plug should come come with slight bleeding.
   Vaginal discharge does not come with blood.

   BTW, I think you are asking about the plug that falls out near the end of pregnancy.

   You’ll know!
   Unless it slowly disolves, it will me a large piece of mucus. Mine was a glob about and inch and a half in diameter. It can be clear or colored.
