Signs of early labour?

Just wondering what was everyone’s signs of early labour and when did it begin/how long did it last for?🥰 Since yesterday I’ve started feeling pain on my lower back and a bit of mild cramping/period pain… I know 100% I’m not in labour… I’m just wondering is this in any way a sign I could be going soonish? Currently 35weeks + 4 days for reference 🥰

Sounds like your body is preparing for birth! If it’s been a smooth pregnancy then you could be waiting a few more weeks! Good luck 🤞🏼 xx

@Caitlin yes I’ve been extremely lucky and have had a smooth pregnancy 🙈 thank you so much Caitlin 🤍xx

@Inês love your dress in your photo! 💖 I have no advice as I'm a first time mum at 33+3 weeks 😂 but I've felt a wee bit of Braxton hicks this week which is a weird feeling lol my pregnancy has also gone pretty smoothly too! Best of luck to you 😍🩷

@Cathy too kind! Thank you so much! It’s from Shein😍 all my maternity clothes have been from Shein🤣 yeah I’m also a first time mum that’s why I ask so many questions on here🙈🤣 yeah I still haven’t fully understood what Braxton Hicks feels like but I’m assuming this may possibly be it🤣 So glad you’ve had a smooth pregnancy also🥰 thank you so much and good luck to you also🤍🤍xx

I was in slow labour for a week with one of mine the other a few days. If you think your in early labour go get checked out as you will need steroid injection. I had 2 of mine at 35 weeks and the other 2 at full term.

My early signs were lower back ache and period type cramps x

@Natalie thank you for the advice 🥰🥰🤍x

@Rebekah yeah that’s what I was having on and off since Wednesday🙈 thank you for sharing🥰xx

My early sign was really sore back that evening went to the bath and had an early night,woke up in the middle of the night in labour 😊 hope all goes well for you x
