Uncommon labour signs?
Im really intrigued to know if anyone has had uncommon signs that labour was near? Other than the usual of waters going, contractions or mucus plug?
I have had some stress lately with my blood pressure so things could be stress related too, but the last couple days I have been getting a pressure feeling in my bum, pelvic area has been sore and aching for some time. Today I'm feeling nausea & don't really have much of an appetite, & extremely tired. Lower back is aching & had period type pains in my lower tummy this morning.
I have this internal weird feeling that something is happening or going to happen, like labour approaching.
I am 38+2. Would love to hear of anyone's unusual/less common ways of feeling like labour was soon approaching :)

@Elizabeth that's interesting. I've heard many times that not all women get the typical belly contractions. My thighs were aching yesterday when I had the lower back and bum pressure. Did it feel like actual contractions but in your thighs? Or more like a achey feeling?
I was induced last time and it started as period cramps! Last time I was checked this time I was 1cm but pelvis pressure when I walk, or baby moves, lower back pain, reduced appetite, my energy has been high whilst I'm at work but driving home and getting home I seem to just drop! Also, baby is very engaged, I'm only small and can fit 2 hands under my boobs until I feel babys bum and can push in and go under my ribs now!

Nearly all of my contractions were in my thighs 🙈 which you don't think they will be there. Was a weird sensation x
