When is it time?!?!?!

I know people say "enjoy being pregnant" which I definitely do. But by my body I know my baby is ready to come out!!! I lost my mucus plug 3 weeks ago, I've had the loose stools (every time I have to go pee, I poop too...sorry tmi) I have contractions,and a whole bunch of other symptoms of early labor.  but I'm only dilated to 1 cm and 50% effaced as of today (I'm 36 weeks) I know this is considered early but my baby is PUSHING DOWN like crazy!!! My doctor stripped membranes today...so I wanna know ABOUT how much longer I have. I understand everyone is different but reading from more personal points of view is relieving.  Thanks!
