labour after show?!

[Kiwiabel]

How mums.

Just a quick question - how long after you got your show did you go into labour?

I got mine today (I think that is what it was) at 39+2, and still working another 4 days before I go on mat leave - wanted to know what to expect.

Thanks in advance.

With my first got the show about 3 days before birth ( I was 40+8). Contractions started a day after the show but we're mild and inconsistent.

With my second had the show in the evening before bed ( on my due date!). Woke up with mild contractions at around 5am. Baby born by lunchtime.
