Hi,
I had a show this morning. Have experienced no pain at all. However I can feel the baby moving down and have more pressure downstairs.
How long after did you experience pain or go into labour. This is my 2nd pregnancy, I was induced first time.

My waters broke a week after my show, quickly followed by contractions starting a couple of hours later - gave birth to DS that evening. Sorry that probably isn't what you wanted to hear, I got all excited that labour would start imminently when I got my show, but it seems that it could be a matter of hours or weeks before labour starts.

Good luck with your labour, I hope it's straightforward and as comfortable as possible for you Smile

About a week! Baby was moving down afterwards as you mention, for several days.

Thank you ladies for sharing. I'm wishing it to start immediately, however it's not happening!

I think it was 9 days from a bloody show to going into labour. Called the midwife and she was very unbothered by it and said it could be weeks till I went into labour. I did have a further bloody show during labour.

I'm in the same boat as you OP. Had mucus plug and a bit more of a show yesterday and today, feeling cramps. Was induced with my first so no idea what to expect.

Really really really hoping something kicks off for us both this weekend Confused

I had a show with DD (2nd pregnancy) about a couple of weeks before she was born I think.

I had a bloody show about 2pm on a Saturday afternoon, went in to proper labour on the Monday night and had my son at 7.30am on the Tuesday morning. My son was 2 days late.
Like you, it was my second birth and I was induced first time round.
