How much mucus is in the plug? (TMI)?

Got up yesterday morning to what I was sure was my mucus plug, but it didn't end. Almost every time I wipe I have more mucus and if I sit on a toilet for long enough there's always some in the water when I get up...it's been 33 hours and it's still regularly coming out - normal?

I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow.

2cm + as of Tuesday

At least 50% effaced (didn't get a number on that since 2 weeks ago)

Hasn't dropped

Update:

I'm not asking how close I am to labor - I know it could be up to 2 weeks still (my doc won't let people go past 41).

My husband and I both thought it was a one shot deal and I'm not sure if I should worry.
