Certainly sounds like it.

Maybe give your midwife a call?

Mine went (with DC1) and I didn't go into labour, but I had an elcs about 3 days later due to baby being breech. I panicked a little bit and called my ante-natal unit, they advised me to keep a check out for other signs of labour, but warned me it could still be a little while off.

Sounds like your plug but I hate to say you can lose plug and not have baby for another 2 weeks. With dc1 plug went 5 days before baby arrived and with dc2 it was about 2 weeks. Good luck

Ye i kno it can b a while but im just glad things are moving along now

I lost mine then my waters broke two weeks later at 33 weeks, so my circumstances were different with not being term.
