Only give her the tums if the contractions seem to be puttering out and unable to do their job. It sounds like she is in early labor. I would guess that the harder stuff that she pulled off of her vulva yesterday was her plug, at least the external portion of it. I know your tired, you've had quite a week or two, but hang in there you're on the home stretch. Carly had 2 pups and never panted. They are all different so you just have to watch her and follow her lead.
