Pregnant With Dark Brownish Clump Discharge Followed By Backache, Difficulty Breathing. Advice

hi! I am 34 weeks pregnant and 2 days with my second child. Two days ago I lost quarter size clumps of greenish/clear stringy mucus. I assumed I might have partially began to lose my mucus plug. Today I went to the restroom to urinate and when I stood up I noticed that I had passed a dark brownish clump a little bigger than a quarter. Within an hour my back has began to ache almost constantly and it feels hard to breathe. My doctors office is not open at the moment, and I don t want to waste a trip to L&D for nothing, any advice?

As you are having backache with brownish discharge, these symptoms are indicating towards preterm labour pains.
Consult your gynaecologist & get abdominal & local examination done.
