beginning labor?

Ftm ... I been feeling what I suspect are contractions & lower back pain but it mostly comes at night. Today I woke up & it's still bothering me.. mind you I've been feeling like this for maybe a few days. I tried to time them but its maybe every 10 mins when I lay down at night they come. I dont know what im supposed to be feeling or if its normal. Ive also been loosing my mucus plug & been dreaming of my water breaking? Can someone tell me if this means he'll come soon btw im 38+1.

Lol @ftmjulybaby1490 I just finished setting the little things up! My contractions are about 6 mins apart so soon he'll be home! Gonna nap then take a shower & end to the hospital when I get closer together in contractions.

Now it's call if you get four in an hour or one every 15min. At least that's what my hospital had been saying

You will just have to wait and see if they get stronger and more frequent. Your doctor probably wont tell u to come it until they are under 5 min apart.
