3rd Trimester

This is my first baby so I have no idea what is and isn’t normal, what to expect, etc. I’m 35 weeks 3 days with a little boy who is quite large for his gestational age. I’ve been feeling pressure for a couple of weeks, today has been much worse than before. But I was out and about on my feet this morning so assumed it was that. Anyway this evening I was standing and it felt like I’d wet myself. I went to the bathroom and wiped - see the photo attached. Is that my mucus plug, or some of it? I also have been feeling LOTS of watery discharge too, again it felt like I’d done a small wee by accident and there’s a little bit gone on the bed too. I know extra discharge can be normal but how do I know if this is waters breaking etc or not? The only other thing that happened today that was different was about 20-30 sec of what felt period cramps then extended to my legs. Anyway. I’m hoping someone who knows what the heck is going on can point me in the right direction please. Thank you! X
Could I be losing my mucus plug?
