I'm so excited!!! I've been here just over 7 years and today is my last day before I take 12 months maternity leave!!!

I'm kinda sad but then i'm so excited about what's ahead of me.

I didnt get onto my doc yesterday. The spotting has stopped though. I have my 37 week appointment on monday so i'll speak to him then about it!

does every pregnant women have to get a mucus plug?
And if so what are they for? Do they protect the baby

A mucus plug develops in every pregnant woman. You have one.

It acts as a cork for your cervix, keeping out all of the things floating around in your vagina. Bacteria, sperm, whatever else might be up there.

It protects your baby, blocking it completely off from the outside.
