ftm is this labor?!

I thought I lost my mucous plug around three or four days ago, and been having little clumps of it come ever since. I had already been put on bed rest for having leaking fluid. Then this morning I went to the bathroom and there was a big glob of gunk with some blood, and there was more the next time I went too. I've been having really strong cramps all day, where moving/repositioning or stretching doesn't help. They're like period cramps but stronger, and its a constant dull ache that gets sharper every so often. It hurts so bad I feel like I'm gonna be sick. Could I be in labor?

Went to the hospital at about two this morning bc I was in so much pain. The doctors checked me and monitored my contractions for about an hour or so, and told me they'd have to send me home since I wasn't dilating fast enough. I was up to two and a half but here they don't keep you unless you're already at at least four, and if you don't progress past that within two hours they have you come back later. Still getting contractions, but it looks like a day of walking around and bearing with it for me today >.< thank you all for you thoughts and support though
