Fewer Braxton Hicks and labour signs??

Did anyone else experience fewer BH and other signs of labour as EDD approaches? I was experiencing all kinds of symptoms that I thought were moving me along around 36-37 weeks, but now that I'm 38 weeks 3 days, I feel nothing. It's like everything came to a halt! No MP, no BH and not even cramping or pressure. I thought contractions would pick up by now since that was my experience with my previous 2 pregnancies. This feels like a sign that I'll go past my EDD. Anyone have similar experiences to share?

Re: Fewer Braxton Hicks and labour signs??

  • I am a FTM so I don't know really what to expect. I had regular contractions that were 2-3 minutes apart starting Friday my nurse and my Dr. Thought for sure I would be at least 6cm after reading how close and intense my contractions read on the monitors at my weekly appointment. But I wasn't dilated so she sent me home and scheduled my regular appointment for next Friday. Contractions became more intense yesterday but today nothing. Really thought my LO would be coming this weekend. I'm 38w2d so I have a few weeks until EDD.

    Only had a couple hours here and there of cramping since hitting the 38 week mark - usually in the late evening when I'm super tired .... I'm 39 weeks today things better start picking up soon ...
