Gush of pink discharge and then blood?

So earlier after I pee and I felt a gush of discharge come on. I wiped and it's creamy pink and quite a lot. Clean that up and think this is part of my bloody show. About 10 min later I went to check and this time I wiped and it's blood red, no discharge mix in, just blood. Not heavy but wasn't excepting plain blood. Is that still part of my bloody show?
Baby has been kicking non stop all morning too.
And I'm 40wks +1.
Just call the OB and waiting from them to call me back. I might be going in today. FTM so this is kind of scary.

Yeah that sounds like your plug. Once your contractions start you'll need them to be between 4-5 min apart usually b4 going in. Unless of course ur dr requests otherwise. Some women lose their plug weeks or days b4 going into labor so i would just calm down, maybe take a shower, go for a walk, and wait for things to begin. Good luck

I will, thank you girls :)
I'm going to try riding out the early part at home as much as possible, as long as there's no more bleeding I think I should be fine. Hopefully be as close to the 5-1-1 rule as possible before checking in. Hubby is on his way back now. Hope to squeeze in a shower before going in. Just to calm my nerves, lol.

Ok, thanks. I'm pretty pack and ready.
The nurse said the blood can be a part of the bloody show but she will check with my OB to see if she want me to head in right away since I'm already 3cm dilated.
The bleeding has stop since that one time and I'm not in any pain. Just started to time my contractions, they'te not too painful yet. Around 45sec and more than 10 min apart.
Guess I will wait a bit before rushing to L&D, but I think it's today for sure.
