losing mucus plug, only 30 weeks

kaleycharron

so i'm really worried because i'm pretty sure i lost my mucus plug this morning and i am only 30 weeks, 2 days. i'm a first time mom.. i'm a very petite girl so i was wondering if i'd make it to 40 weeks, but this seems a little TOO early! is it possible to lose only pieces of the mucus plug, or does it all come at once? the mucus was not bloody at all. i also understand that losing the plug often means labor is in the not-so-distant future. how soon does it indicate, and will my baby be okay coming out that early?! :
