Please help, getting scared.. Maybe TMI

First off I’m 38 weeks pregnant. Early this morning I had lost what I thought was my mucus plug. It was a light pink and brown tinged mucus when I wiped. I went back to bed and when I woke up again and went to the bathroom I had blood in my underwear but this time it was more of a dark red and not really a tinge but just blood. So I put on a pad and went and ate breakfast. I just checked again (an hour after the previous time) and it is a dark red again in the pad. I’d say overall it’s been about 2 tbs of blood. Baby is still moving but I’m panicking. I’ve also had period cramps this morning which have been roughly 20 minutes apart, but not like what I figured contractions to be like. I’m literally shaking I’m so scared right now but I don’t want to be the silly girl who cried wolf and go to the hospital which is about an hour away and make my husband leave work early if it’s nothing. Anyone else experience this?

UPDATE: I called and the lady at the front desk answered. She told me my doctor and her nurse were busy and she could take a message. So I left my very awkward message about my mucus with the front desk lady and was told the nurse would call me back.
