mucus plug

When are you supposed to lose your mucus plug? And how do you know if you've lost it? And what does it mean when you do?  (First time mother and have no clue about any of that)

I lost mine today 30+6 the doctor I seen at the hospital said it doesn't mean labor is coming and she said also it can grow back not to worry unless my contractions become regular or I start leaking or bleeding they said its nothing to worry about unless accompanied by other symptoms but you can lose it at any time while pregnant apparently
