I have read you can lose it a month or more before you deliver.
I lost mine last sunday at 37 weeks. And just Braxton hicks. Last Friday dr said i was dileted 2 centimeters but Nothinh else has happened.
I've heard it doesn't always mean you will go into labor...I've heard women say it grew back and then they lost it again.
About 2 hours, 1 hour and 50mins to be precise
The day after . after I lost plug I started with period like pains then contractions
