Is feeling happy a sign of labour...?

[movingmelly]

Hi!
I'm 41 weeks today.
Having spent the last week grumpy et al, I've woken today feeling weirdly serene and happy, peaceful in the body, warm and fuzzy - that kind of thing.
Is this a sign of imminent labour? Related to oxytocin maybe?
Long shot I know, maybe I'm just getting desperate now! 😂

I wouldn't say so, no 😂

No, I'd say not. I was a grumpy emotional mess both times!

Haha, I'm not sure - but if you've just got a feeling, that's what I felt like before it started.

I remember saying to DP, Hope you're feeling ready... and he was like, do you think it'll be tonight?!

It was my first labour so I didn't want to feel like an idiot with a million false alarms, and wasn't really feeling anything necessarily, so said no...but went into labour later that night.
