Early signs of labor

[albert92]

What are the earliest signs of labour before contractions ?
Just want to know what to look out for ? Is Braxton Hicks a sign ?

Honestly there aren't any universal signs, it just differs from person to person. My waters broke and that was my first warning. Braxton Hicks occur regularly through pregnancy but I have heard a few people say theirs became stronger and more frequent prior to labour.

Probably the one most universal sign, obviously not everyone experiences it though, is your mucus plug coming away. But even then it differs from person to person as to how quickly labour follows. It can be anything from hours to days to weeks.

Good luck
