Weird symptoms before labor

I've felt like I was coming down with something for a few days now (runny or stopped up nose, sore throat, cough, aches, headaches, nausea, fatigue). I lost my mucus plug (again) last night followed by mild contractions. This morning I woke up feeling even more sick, cramping, and suuuuuper emotional.. I've heard of these being signs of labor coming soon, but I'm not gonna get my hopes up just yet as I've been having false labor for like a week now. Did any of you experience anything similar?

  • @smccall3838 bloody show is a great sign!!!! Last pregnancy I had bloody show labor started later that day!!! Exciting!! I'll keep fingers crossed for you!!! Let us know if you go into labor!!!! :)
  • Me too! Especially super emotional/down, which is not like me nor have I been like this in my pregnancy so far. Had blood show on Tuesday... Definitely got my hopes up! Alas, 5 days later, every morning with lower stomach cramps, no bambino! My mantra now is "he'll come when he's ready" as all this symptom/pre labour stuff is driving me insane!!
  • I had weird not-mucousy bleeding on Tuesday. They bumped up my appointment, but couldn't find the source and I wasn't any more dilated/effaced than the week before. All week I've been unable to sleep, super-irritable, having on/off contractions, and today I just feel cruddy and am emotional. I did lose a big chunk of my mucus plug today and now I'm crampy, but I doubt it'll go anywhere.... Which doesn't make me feel any less frustrated.

    Yes! I've had similar symptoms as well. The stuffy nose, scratchy throat, and super emotional... No bloody show tho. I'm set to be induced Thursday on the 16th! Maybe I'll go in labor before then. [-O<
