S/O full of ***

So this has been me too the past few days, and all of a sudden this afternoon they turned loose.

I don't have an upset stomach with them or anything, and I didn't eat anything that sometimes triggers it for me like too many tacos.

And I know this is a total FTM question, but between this, the backache I've had for days, and the small amount I'm dilated, should I be on the lookout for the bigger signs of labor sooner rather than later?!

And yes, I definitely just used all of you as dr. google. I'm not sure I can tell the difference between the "normal" discomfort of being a zillion months pregnant and possible mild contractions.

    Honestly, with the way people discount symptoms of early labor around here, I'm not going to think I'm in labor until there's a baby coming out. ;p

    But yeah, loose stools is on my Ob's list of "things that can indicate labor will happen." Still, I wouldn't lose sleep trying to decide if every little twinge you feel now is the start of contractions. In fact, try to rest up as much as you can, just in case.

    This is what I figured, I just want to hold out until Sept!! I'm not due until 9/16, and we need some actual Sept babies around here!

    I was just really surprised this afternoon, since it's so atypical for me to have BM issues with no warning.

    It really is frustrating, sometimes, isn't it?   Our symptoms can be so ambiguous.    I get a lot of contractions and a lot of bathroom issues and I always wonder if it's the real deal.   But, I tend to try to sleep it off.  I figure if it's real labor, I'll wake up from it...if not, then obviously it wasn't.     Of course, I fully expect to be that girl who has her baby in a public bathroom because I ignored all the signs.  Stick out tongue
