Bloody Show/Losing Mucus Plug

Angela
This morning I woke up and had lots of brown discharge (my mucus plug coming out ) I am almost 38 weeks along. I had cramping the previous two days and cramping today. The plug has continued to come out throughout the day and has also become more bright red. How long was it after losing your mucus plug did you ladies go into labor? 
* also, I am fully aware that this does not necessarily mean labor is right around the corner, I am asking out of curiosity. ☺️
