34w1d && mucus plug out

So about a hour ago I noticed that my mucus plug came out, this is my first baby && I'm just 34 weeks ... what exactly does this mean? When I did my research it said since this is my first then I should be going in to labor within a week or so ... true or nahh?

I lost my mucus plug at 36 wks with my first and he was born on his due date but only because of a c-section. It's just your body preparing for labor but there is really no telling how much until baby is born as all women are different.
