Mucus plug & Labor experience?🤞🏽😊

I know it can take hours, days, weeks. I’m asking this for experience ONLY on women who were fortunate enough to go into labor within less than a week after losing their mucus plugs.

I’m 38w5d today. On Friday I got really bad back pain and lost a bit of my mucus plug. No biggie. Come Sunday I keep getting a bit of pain and so on everyday. Now today at 4am I was having contraction like feelings every 5-10min which lasted a good 5hrs non stop but never increased in pain so I didn’t go into L&D. I’ve since used the restroom 3 times and have been losing way more mucus plug!

How soon after did you go into labor??

Again, please no comments on “it can mean nothing” I know it can but I’m just looking for some hope from women who’s experience did mean Labor.

Second time mom and hopefully first VBAC 🤞🏽🤞🏽
