Labour

Lost my mucus plug ten days before, was leaking a week before. Back started a couple of days before.

I also felt very heavy and had a lot of pressure and was struggling to walk. I think everyone is different though. X

I didn’t get any, my contractions started randomly

No, I had a bloody show/lost my plug 4 times between 39+4 and my daughter’s birth at 41+3! I was cramping from 35 weeks and then having contractions that would be regular and intense and then suddenly trail off for about 10 days before I finally went into established labour. I had all ‘the signs’ but they never turned into labour. My contractions just started and then my waters broke 2 hours later

The day before I felt more exhausted than I ever had. Beyond that not really.

Lost my mucus plug on a Monday gave birth on a Thursday. My body was swelled more than ever I started getting Braxton hicks and a sharp pain down there

My legs started to get really swollen the last 3 days (got checked for preeclampsia but was fine) other than that there was nothing until my waters broke x

I had signs on the day - really moody, sore lower back all of a sudden, upset tummy

@Valentina Mcillmurray same! My bump just felt different… heavier and it was painful to walk lol

I felt the need to do cleaning /tidying, that afternoon my waters partially went and that evening contractions started! My friends saw me the day before and apparently I was waddling when walking 😂

None at all, I just woke up to my waters breaking

NOPE! At 40+1 weeks my baby kicked me really hard at 4am and my water broke. I was still less than 1 cm dilated and I only lost my mucous plug after my water broke.
