Tell me about your early labor...

I am lurking from Oct '13 board ... my c-section is scheduled 10/10 but i've been having PTL since 24wks with 2 additional l&d trips of PTL at 34weeks. I'm coming off the meds that have been stopping my labor in 4 days and i'm really curious how i'll know when i'm actually in labor should it happen before my c-section date. 

I'd love to hear any stories of women who had pretty good signs of pre-labor aside from water breaking... thank you!

    How do you do a search?

  • Up in the right hand corner. 

    I will tell you mine though. I had a bloody show RIGHT before my water broke. That's really it, I didn't have any other "signs".

  • A little over a week before I went into labor, I lost my mucus plug. The night of- my water broke and I had my bloody show. Within an hour of my water breaking I had contractions that were consistent and close together...plus as silly as it sounds- I just knew it was the real deal. Good luck to you!

    I just can't help myself. It's a pet peeve of mine. Before I would get irritated because it's just being lazy to not make any effort. Now, my time is so limited I don't want to waste it reading post like these. I am convinced half of these posts are just to piss people off. How are you and the little one doing?

  • I had contractions and felt like I could have gone into labor several times for about a month before anything happened. People say you just know. Nope... Not really. My water was leaking and I didn't have much to go off of.
    I did wake up 2 days before saying something was different and if "I don't go into labor in the next 48 hrs something is off". Well there was no just going into labor. It was a gut feeling. I was in pre labor for several days.

    I truly think its different for everyone. Good luck
