37.5 Weeks Pregnant and The Loss of My Mucus Pkug

I am 37.5 weeks pregnant today and this morning I lost the mucus plug in the bathroom.  I had the bloody show.  Later I had a few surges that were more like contractions and less like brachston hicks.  It was only 2 within the span of an hour so no way near labor.  Later I started feeling so warm I had to turn the AC up.  Our house guest left to go back home so I decided Fiona and I should go to the grocery to fill the fridge just in case the baby comes soon.  I can tell the baby is lower.  I also am having some gas.  It feels like everything is moving lower.
