41 weeks today- mucus plug/labor?

last night I started losing what I believe was my mucus plug, today I've passed a little here & there when I go to the bathroom. my induction is scheduled for Thursday morning, but could it be likely that I'm going on my own? when I'm up moving around I have what feel like period cramps. but as soon as I sit or lay down they go away.

If they stop when you lay down then they are braxton hicks. Mucua plug doesnt give any timeline for when youll go into labor. You could go into labor, you could not, unfortunately neither are a sign labor is happening soon
