Due in 3 days!!

Hello Ladies, I'm 39 weeks and 3 days!! I'm due November 7th and I lost my mucus plug about 3 days ago and had my bloody show yesterday morning;)
I've been cramping/contracting for the last two days and they suddenly stopped last night and are starting again today.
They've been irregular and I'm hoping they regulate so I can see my baby boy!!
Anybody have gone through this or is going through this??
I would love to hear about you ladies!

The mucus plug is normally just a mucusy discharge. Like a glob of boogers. Mine were yellowish and took about three days to come out all the way.
Then on Saturday,  I felt a lot of pressure in my pelvis so I went to the bathroom and peed. When I wiped there was blood and mucus together on the toilet paper.
A little bit more came out after that. I called my doctor and she said that labor is happening so to be ready to see my baby in a few days.
But he's still in there. ; (

You can lose your mucus plug anytime but it only counts if you have the bloody show with it, if not it usually replenishes itself.... But I lost my plug at 38 wks and still had mine 5 days after my due date, had 2 membrane sweeps and still had to be induced, he was stubborn but if they regulate and get intense and close together then it's time :) best of luck to you both!

Sounds like what I'm having! I'm due the 13th! What's the difference with "bloody show" and "mucus plug" ? I thought it was the same thing? I hope to read a post from you that says "in labor" soon :)
