First of all, don't worry. It sounds like it probably is your mucous plug. But, that doesn't mean much of anything. With my first baby I lost my plug but nothing more happened and I still had to be induced. With my second I don't think I lost it prior to going into labor. Losing your mucous plug is just one of those things, like Braxtion-Hicks contractions, and cervical thinning and dilation that are good signs, but don't really mean anything.
