Time those contractions! And call your Dr. Mine started with light period like cramps, with the braxton hicks. Most women will not notice there mucus plug falling out cause it may come out little by little to where you don't notice it happening. If the pain gets to where you cant talk or sleep, call your Dr. it may be time. I would call your Dr. so he can tell you when to go to the hospital.
