Im 40 weeks pregnant and i wiped myself and got a stringy snot like discharge could this be my mucus plug?

Likely : Mucus plug is a thick clump of mucus. It comes out any time near the end of pregnancy. Some women notice it, others don't. Labor may come soon but passing the mucus plug is not a sign of labor.
