one week

Ceolas · 28/08/2007 19:01

Only had it once out of 3. 2 days.

Hoping this one gets a move on without a show (40+4)

Snap, LuluMama, a week for me too!

memmawizz · 28/08/2007 19:03

I assume it washed away when my waters broke as I was pushing.

OriginalUglyBetty · 28/08/2007 19:04

I had mine early in the morning labour started at 11pm-ish and ds was born at 1:10am
.With dd i didnt have one just faster labour!.

Everyone is different though so dont panic just yet

I had mine at 35 weeks and baby at 37 weeks! Sometimes early shows don't mean going into labour straight away.

ruddynorah · 28/08/2007 19:06

27 hours. mine went with my waters going with my first contraction.

Marsy, your advice on my self-pitying overdue thread please...?

Charlie999 · 28/08/2007 19:14

6 days - I was 37 + 4 when I had my show and 38 + 3 when DD came

CorrieDale · 28/08/2007 19:14

MarsLady · 28/08/2007 19:16

Had a show at 6.30am and dd was born at 2.15pm the same day. So about 8hrs

helenelisabeth · 28/08/2007 22:04

Roughly 10 hours! Good luck!

weeonion · 28/08/2007 22:17

used2bthin · 28/08/2007 22:23
