2+ moms, do you have a hard time remembering?

I know every baby is different but when trying to remember what I felt like right before labor..I just don't! 

I remember we had just finished moving into our new house and I went to bed pretty early, waking up a few hours later in labor. My water didn't break, I don't remember any "warning signs" like diarrhea, nausea, nesting, mucus plug, bloody show.. it just kinda happened. I remember having these pre labor signs maybe a week before, but nothing the day of. I'm not sure if I really had no signs or if I've just forgotten! Anyone else foggy about previous labors?

  • My water broke before I went into labor, but I don't really remember much other than that.

    I actually had to look up mucus plug pictures (which I don't recommend!!) to check since I couldn't remember what it looked like the first time.

    Momnesia is no joke.

  • I lost my mucus plug a week before... had BH since 20 weeks so things never got regular... my water broke at a week over due.... had do idea till it happened!

  • I was induced, so I have no idea what it's like to go into labor on my own. Although I'm really hoping I do, I'm scared I'll miss the beginning signs, especially since I'm GBS+ and can't wait too long to get to the hospital.

  • Yep, my water breaking was the first sure sign I was in labor, but I remember thinking I might be having contractions the day before that. However, I can't remember what that felt like at all:). I delivered w/out meds and really can't remember what the contractions or pushing felt like at all (although I know it hurt at the time). The only thing I really remember is the pain of getting stitched up afterwards.

    So I looked up images of the mucus plug against recommendations!  And I guess I lost mine over Wed and Thurs this past week.  I hope that means baby is coming soon!!!  I've always been induced so I'm super curious as to what it's like to just go into labor naturally.  If it happens soon, I'll let you guys know if I have any warning signs.  The only sign I can see right now is that feel progressively worse and worse each day.

  • I just remember being extra crabby the AM before I went into labor.  I was miserable and remember deciding that if I didn't have the baby by Friday I wasn't coming back to work the next Monday.  No crampiness, no contrax, no mp or bloody show ... the contrax came out of nowhere right after lunch.
