Getting that feeling

I'm 34+4 with MCDA twins and when I saw the consultant a few weeks ago and again on Friday he kept saying expect them anytime really now freaked me out but I knew inside they could come early anyway, but last night I was getting braxton hicks that we're getting worse and had a little bit of period type pain but nothing I was worried about. This morning I have lost a load more of the plug, which I know doesn't necessarily mean anything really but movements feel a little different like pushing down (just to clarify I'm not worried about the movements as they are as much as normal just feel like they're working on something lol) twin 1 has had his head right in my pelvis for just under a month now and twin 2 has been breach since forever, but something today just gives me that feeling like it's going to happen really soon.. so much so I've just changed the bed in the spare room where I have been sleeping as it's more comfortable as my brother in law and his partner are our child care for our other son when the time comes. And figured if I get it down now I won't have to do it quick before we go to the hospital.. just wondering if anyone else had 'that feeling'? I planned to go for a walk with my son this morning but now I'm worried I'll get half way down the village and something will happen and my 21 month old isn't going to be able to do anything lol

Go for a walk and be sure to let someone know you're going on a walk and keep their phone nearby.
I was induced so can't comment on what you're feeling. Although the induction didn't work with the first round by the second round I just knew it was coming. Sounds silly because of being induced but my body just felt a lot different.

I had that feeling with both of mine. With dd especially. I had BH for a week, had my bloody show etc and the couple of hours before my waters leaked, id put my sons overnight bag on the landing and my hospital bags out too and checked to make sure i had everything. DP couldn't fathom why i was doing it but i knew.

I have an induction date of the 7th but I really don't want to be induced as I've heard it can take ages! I know everyone is different but I just felt like it would for me lol.
I went for walk, it was nice to get fresh air but it was definitely a little painful!
I keep getting a downward feeling like a pressure which builds and builds to the point when I feel like I'm going to completely wet myself and then it's like the pressure releases last second and it goes but then comes back again, even sitting down I'm getting the feelings. My plug went and then a few days later my waters went then my contractions started really painful (I was a wuss I hope I cope better this time haha) straight away. I just hope it's similar in a way that my waters go first then stuff starts as they can go just before they're born can't they so I just want to happen what I know if that makes sense lol. I feel like I'm asking too much for sure!
I started losing plug a few weeks ago but there wasn't any blood and when they checked my cervix was still completely closed and high? (Think they said high lol) I feel like I'm 100% ready to have these babies now but when they're here I'll be like panic stations I think lol. I never expected to have one more child after my son let alone two!! 😂
