Can I be in labour without having a show?

First two labours, I had a show then within a few hours contractions started.

For the last couple of hours I've been have fairly strong contractions every 5-7 minutes, but no show at all. Could this be the real thing?

Due date today. Its different to the previous two which has thrown me a bit!

Typical it would kick off just as I get in bed too Angry

I never had a show. But waters breaking was a bit of a giveaway.

Never had show or waters breaking either. And all my labours started when I was either asleep or just winding down to sleep.

Good luck!Smile

Yes you can, I didn't have with either of mine. Suspect it was c gradual so I didn't notice. Good luck!
