Just for fun.

I'm 37 weeks and getting antsy! Obviously I know I have a couple more weeks to go, but just for fun... looking back, were there any signs that you were going to go into labor in the next few days to a week? Not signs that you were IN labor, but that you were going to go into labor soon? Maybe you didn't realize it then, but looking back you do? Just curious  

Not for me! I had natural labor start at 38 weeks, my daughter had dropped 2 weeks prior, but aside from that, I didn't think anything was different. I just woke up at midnight with HORRIBLE back labor that didn't quit until I popped her out at 4pm. My water didn't break on its own and I didn't lose my mucous plug.

no. with my first, it totally snuck up on me. i was 37 weeks & 2 days at my appt, 3cm dilated, she stripped my membranes, and i had sex the next day and had him that night.

this one.. i had contractions a few times and some bleeding after sex. but they always stopped. i went into labor with contractions, and i was timing them, but i was still unsure if we should go in. we did, and the whole way to the hospital i was just bitching about being sent home lol. but they kept me and i had him 5 hours later.

but i don't think there were any signs like, oh next week thursday is the day.. LOL

other than extreme pressure in my pelvis and vagina no it kinda came on all at once and i was two weeks early

I got the flu at 36 weeks

For me I started noticing period like pains a few days prior to going into labor. The day I went into labor it started with my stomach tighten and loosening. I thought BH because they weren't painful. A few hours later I began having real contractions. I laid on the bed for about 25 or 30 minutes and when I went to set up my water broke. I deliver her almost 6 hours later. I didn't even have my bloody show until I reached the hospital.

My DD did not drop until the day before I went into labor... I knew when I started peeing myself all of a sudden ..something was going on

I had building anxiety, and then RIGHT before my water broke I had an anxiety attack.

Cramping that felt like I had to go poo and also lots of pressure Getting outta bed my vagina hurt nd also more frequent bh I was sooo moody and everything was annoying to me I dint really have an appetite I noticed all that like a week before and I noticed I was so tired I only wanted to sleep
