The : The stage of labor you are describing is called early labor, and it occurs when the cervix begins to dilate, the mucous plug is commonly lost in this stage. This stage is unpredictable. It can lasts from hours to days. Based on this post you are probably in active labor, or have already given birth to your baby. All the best to you and your bundle of joy!
