Yesterday was my due date
Feeling so excited, antsy, and unsure how I'll even know when labor is about to start. I can't wait yet I'm also scared to death. It's gonna be SOON

Hey! I wish you all the happy and positive vibes. Did you see your doctor yet ? This is my first baby too and I'm due in July end. Wondering if doctor recommended you to wait for natural pains ?
Best way I can describe the contractions is an intense pressure downward and your entire uterus gets tight. Unfortunately I can't give you more information after initial labor because I didn't dilate past 6cm and had to have an emergency C-section but I know from what I did experience they are looking for 60 seconds or longer to cause dilation and they get stronger and longer as labor continues.
