Help. Mucus plug???

So for about 2 weeks now I have been having a yellow/clear snot like discharge. Well today it was a lot bigger and has some pinkish brown in it. Is this the full mucus plug? I'm 39 weeks. I never lost it with my first.

I'm still having some come out, but it isn't tinged with any pink or brown just a light yellowish

No reason to call your doctor or go in unless your water breaks or you start having consistent contractions.

That's what I was thinking. I heard it's normal for some brown or pink in it. Contractions have stated, but not staying constant yet.

If I saw anything pinkish brown, I'd ask my doctor. Just call though, no need to go in unless the doctor thinks you need to.

Can't call her until monday, but I have an appointment with her that morning .
I'm not sure how many people have this, but with my insurance, I have a 24 hr nurse hotline so if I can't call my doctor, or my son's doctor, I can call them. Do you have anything like that?
I'm not sure, I have BCBS for insurance.
