Losing mucus plug

I'm currently 38w3d and have just noticed about a teaspoons worth of yellowish, jelly-like substance when I wiped. Does that sound like mucus plug? If so, does this mean labour is imminent or could it still take a while from now?

Ahhh, that's not what I was hoping to hear! Thanks though.
