Signs of labour?

Currently 37 weeks and bub has been really low in my birth canal for the past 2 weeks. Past few days I have had all round belly cramps that come and go, back aches, nausea, slight wet feeling in my undies and just pain down there wondering if this could be signs of labour soon

37 w 4 d and i’m having the same symptoms. more discharge, he’s dropped, have had cramping that comes and goes, nausea/vomiting, back aches more than normal, and lightning crotch. wondering the same thing so hoping other women have an answer for us!

I'm 37+1, baby has been fully engaged for about a month now and I'm having all the same symptoms. My midwife said she wouldn't be surprised if baby came before my due date, but I've also had several friends say they were in the exact same situation and their babies still came a week late so sadly it's anyone's guess really! I thought it was going to be soon but after a solid week of feeling these symptoms I think she's just as likely to come 2 weeks late as she is to turn up tomorrow 😂 it's common for things to start to gear up several weeks before labour starts, everyone is different. It's all a waiting game! Good luck ladies and wishing you a safe delivery whenever your little ones decide it's time! X

Aww our sweet babies let's not keep mummas waiting that long haha

I’m 39w & felt the same since 37weeks. I was convinced she was coming early but she’s still cooking 😭
