Could this be real?! Kinda long

Lost my mucus plug early yesterday morning then started having contractions all day. Got five minutes apart and were hurting so called my doctor office and the nurse said I can go to l&d to get checked because MY DOCTOR OS OUT OF TOWN ALL WEEK! Then got sent home until they were closer and stronger since I wasn't dilated enough was only at a 1. Came home had sex, then bloody show came, and went walking and did some squats lol we want this baby home! Got late so went to sleep and had contractions all through the night. Wondering if I'm going into labor or what the heck is happening? Anyone else go through this?

Sounds like early labor to me. This can last hours to weeks. Good luck

No experience here, but good luck if this is go-time!

It's probably the body prepping for labor, I've had a lot of on/off contractions. The post-sex "bloody show" may have just been your body responding to all that's going on down there as opposed to bloody show- it's so hard to tell! Did they tell you anything about how far effaced your cervix is? I find that information more hopeful than how dilated.

Maybe the full moon's working in your favor! LOL!
