ftm - labor questions

Okay I know these may be stupid questions but I wanna know lol. I'm 34 weeks.

1. Do you have to lose your mucus plug in order to dialate?

2. Can your water break without you losing your mucus plug?

1) No. Sometimes women dialate and don't notice their mucus plug or it comes out very slowly as pregnancy progresses. Some women lose it while in active labor.    2) Yes. Your water can break at anytime in your pregnancy.
