You don't have to use your mucus plug before going into labour. You can loose your plug weeks before going into actual labour. With all 3 of my deliveries I did not lose the plug first. When the baby's ready to be born then your water will break as the babe's pushing at the cervix. Keep in mind that you may you into labour before your water breaks or your water breaking and put you into full swinf labour.
