i think...

something's starting to happen...not to be too graphic, but i just woke up & went to the bathroom & the rest of my mucus plug came out (along with a little blood...so i KNOW that's what it was).  and, now i'm starting to feel light contractions.  i think it's the "real thing", but i guess we'll see.

we (derek...if i'm in pain) will post more later.
