Anything happen before Labour for you?

Just this really! I’m 39 + 2 today and woke up with period like cramps this morning & aching legs 🙈 It is that feeling of ‘have I just come on?! Dash to toilet to check’ 😂 Had it a few days ago but settled and it’s currently still here and nausea which I’ve had last few days.

Did you have any symptoms of Labour incoming & if so what & how soon did you go into labour?

Was induced with first at 37 + 6 so this is sort of new to me. I know it can still take me over 40 weeks etc but just wondered about your experience

Hi
I had my waters broken at 40+6 but had no obvious signs! 2 days prior my hind waters had actually broken but this was dismissed by the hospital who thought I had just weed my self 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Oh wow was it just like urine though or thicker discharge? Did they break your waters whilst doing a sweep or?

Lots of pooping. And feeling really anxious. Not about the pooping just in general.

Not really anything different, had to have a sweep each time to start things off.

It was just a case of more Braxton Hicks?...fuuuuuck...no I think this might be the real thing now.

The first time I was fine all day and suddenly a massive period type pain but worse in the evening and a baby a few hours later. Second time fine again no signs then a bit of blood but no pain at first and then a baby a few hours later. Neither time would I have known before the pain / blood that it was imminent.

The night before my labour started I experienced something called a “malour flush” my face went bright red like a mask, I didn’t even know it was labour related but after a quick search it’s definitely a sign, I went into labour 6am the next morning :)
