congratulations, it sounds like you're getting ready to have a baby

mucous plug looks just like something you may pull out of your nose. Sometimes it has blood streaked in it, sometimes not. Sometimes it has brown blood in it so looks a bit icky.

Are your period pains and/or backache coming reagularly?

If I were you I'd ring your midwife/hospital. It sounds to me like the baby is coming.

Although it could still be a while, but give them a ring and let them know what's happening.

Good luck
