How do we know if it’s mucus plug? Does it come out at one shot or bit by bit? And what are the signs to watch out for after mucus plug is released?

It is a a thick, gel-like discharge that may be clear, slightly pink, brown or even red. Once the plug is released, watch closely for signs of active labour. You want to be looking out for when contractions become regular, frequent, and increasingly intense. Active labor contractions are typically about 4-5 minutes apart, last around 45-60 seconds, and continue to occur consistently.
