2min contractions

Hey, Im 38+ 4 weeks pregnant and started getting painful contractions yesterday morning at 8am that were timed 2-3 min apart lasting for 30 seconds, so I went into hospital to be checked and I was only 1cm dilated. Went home and have the same two min contractions till 9pm when I lost my mucus plug after sex with my partner. Then my contractions changed to every 20-30 min from 10pm to 11am and now they have stopped altogether. What's going on?? Has anyone else had anything like this?

Yes sounds like pre labor! It will really be any time at this point! Walk,sex, squats... all will help when those contractions start up again!

I'm confused that my contractions have stopped. Could this be pre-labour? Just waiting ...
