I'm also due in 3 wks and have no idea what contractions or braxton hicks feel like. I think that I've very very slowly been losing my mucus plug but idk.

With my first I had discharge which I found out was my mucus plug for a couple weeks before. It was thickish  and sometimes more brown and sometimes clear or yellow. I also had a surge of energy near the end and wanted to nest. The day I went into labor I started having contractions that morning around 11. It felt like pressure pushing down on vagina.  I didn't think it felt like period cramps at all, though I know a lot of people say that.  And it wasn't painful at first. They were pretty irregular.  As they day went on they got more regular and more intense and I knew it was labor at about 5 in the evening, but it still wasn't that painful. By 9 the pain was definitely strong and the downward pressure was still there, but now my back and front of my uterus would tense up and hurt at the same time. My water didn't break until I was in the hospital and actually the midwife and a nurse both tried to break it 3 times before it finally broke. Now I'm 37 weeks and still no mucus or any signs of labor except that I'm having more braxton hicks than usual and they actually hurt more and are becoming more like labor contractions.
