    YES! you just lost ur mucus plug!

    i was 41 weeks when i gave birth

    and it wasn't until after i lost my mucus plug that i got contractions

    they were 10 minutes apart for the longest time

    i went to bed but i couldn't sleep bc they started getting worse

    so i went to the dr around 5 am was admitted and had my little love bug around 6:42 pm

    Congrats! ur close!!!

    Good Luck mama! <3

    No worries. Sounds like you are getting ready but not quite there. It may take a little longer to really get going. Rest, drink some fluids. Good luck.
