I'm 40+4 weeks pregnant and had my sweep this morning

Last night going to bed I felt really sick struggling to go to sleep, this morning at 9:40 I had my sweep and had some little pains what you would expect apparently I'm 3cm dilated, I've been having a lot of heavy discharge but since my sweep I think I've lost my plug! I should mention this is my first pregnancy so i don't have a clue! Every now and then I'm having pains in my back and legs and brown discharge? What is this and any advice to get him moving? I really need him out as starting to get depressed?

My advice would be to call the triage as they can advice better than a forum. You might be in early labour
