Dilating or showing any other signs of early labor, I don't think you have any reason to worry.

Sometimes, late in pregnancy, baby feels really heavy. I often joked that it felt like he would fall out if I sneezed. Trust me, it's not that easy. If baby were "poking out" you would feel an intense burning feeling. The average pregnancy is 40-42 weeks. Most midwives and doctors will not let you get close to 42 weeks because the placenta starts to degenerate. Most first time mom's go into labor closer to 41 weeks.
Unless you are contracting, dialati

Close to birth your mucus plug will come out like a discharge. Its kinda clear and stretchy. This is my fourth pregnancy and from my experience they can feel like they are about to come but will stay until they are forced out.

Nobody knows.  You can easily go full term 40 weeks like everyone else.  I had pre term labor at 32 weeks.  Delivered at 40 weeks.

Its possible but not likely to happen. Do you hsve any signs that the baby is coming? Though you are full term, I guess you would be feeling his approach by now if the baby was about to come.
