Some can lose it anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of hours and some don't lose it at all. If you start having close contractions you are on your way.

I believe that is just a sign that very soon you will be in active labor if you don't lose it in the birthing process. i don't think there is an actual day limit but everyones body is different.

W/ my 1st child, I must have lost it during labor, b/c I did not notice it. W/ my 2nd I started losing it around the 36th week, and continued to lose it until he was born at 38 weeks. W/ my 3rd and 4th children, I did not lose it until I was in labor. Everybody is different. Some women lose it and then go into labor right away, some lose it after they are in labor, some lose it weeks before labor starts! Anyway it goes, it does mean that you will hold your little one very soon! Congrats to you!

For me, with all of my pregnancies, I lost my plug just before I went into labour, within hours.;)

I lost me plug at 24 weeks i did not go into labor till 29weeks, and now i have still not had a baby which is good cause i am only 30weeks today. Now with my son i lost it at 32weeks and he came two weeks later. It just depends on your body really everyone is different.

It can be different for everyone, I lost my mucus plug and didn't deliver my baby until 3 weeks later. Labor can happen soon after the loss, or not for a few weeks.
