Could this mean labour is imminent?

Today is my due date for dc2. Had a sweep approx 2pm, a rather 'thorough' one. MW said I was already 1-2cm dilated. Been feeling very sore/achy most of the day. In the last half an hour, I think I've started to have a bit of a show. With dc1, I didn't start losing my plug until after my waters started leaking and already confirmed I was in labour. MW said my cervix was quite back/high at the time but she was able to do the sweep after I raised my bum higher and I was quite soft.

TMI, but I've also had very urgent, loose bowels a little While ago. Does this sound positive that things could be moving in the right direction?

Yes possibly! I was 1cm dilated with a cervix the midwife could barely get to - 3 hrs later baby was born!

Sounds pretty good. I've heard that for a lot if women the body has a clear out prebirth.
