Just adding another pre-labor symptom to the list (tmi)

This kid is so stubborn. My dr says my body is ready to go...baby is just taking his sweet time. I am 3cm dialated and 90% effaced. I have been losing my mucus plus for a couple weeks, braxton hicks, on and off loose bowel movements, cramping, back pain etc... My dr even had me go through 2 membrane sweeps to get things going and nothing.

Induction is scheduled for Tuesday morning...

 and then today I have my bloody show! ...yeah Im not even going to get my hopes up anymore lol My mom got all excited saying that labor isnt far off now but I have heard that it could still be a few days before contractions even start? How long after your bloody show did you go into labor? I know everyone is different. Im just curious.

I don't have any help - I never even dilated last time and had the baby by c-sec at 41 +4 after various issues.  BUT I wanted to say hang in there momma.  That baby is coming one way or the other soon!

I didn't have (bright red) bloody show until I was actually in labor with DS. GL!! I hope your LO comes soon!!!
