Help please

I'm 16 and 39 weeks pregnant

I need help , i was 3 cm dilated on Tuesday and 50% effaced and soft and -3 station and I lost my mucus plug. How long do yu think I have until I go into labor? My midwifes say I might have my baby before my due date but I don't see that happening. I have terriable head aches and my back hurts all the time. My belly gets hard all the time which I know are braxton hicks. I can't stand being pregannt anymore ;( I've had morning sickness my entire pregnancy. .

I completely scrubbed my house when I started losing my plug...  went into labor the next morning:)  try some light exercises if you want to motivate labor or just sleep and relax and it will happen soon enough!

Hi, you might well have baby before your due date, unfortunately there's no definite science to when labour will start. It sound like things are moving in the right direction though, maybe go for a walk if you can to help try and encourage baby out. Good luck!
