A question for 2nd time mommas....

I was just wondering did you feel different or notice anything from when your body is kinda giving you hints that baby is almost going to come? Like I know the things they say like water breaking or mucus plug coming out but other then that before all that happens did your body act different in any way kinda giving you hints like baby is gonna come?

    I had no signs until my water broke.  Even then I didn't know it was amniotic fluid. It was such a small, slow leak. Prior to my water breaking, baby was still high and I wasn't dilated at all.

    The days before I went into real labor, I had "false labor" which was just discomfort all around my abdomen, like period cramps, and pain that would come and go in the form of contractions. They were sporadic. My water broke at the hospital, so I never experienced that at home. I get really scared when I experience cramping feelings now because that's what told me labor was imminent!

    I had menstrual like cramps the day before I went into labor, which my mom said she also had with all of my siblings and I.

    With my last one, my body cleaned itself out before I went until labor. I had diarrhea for a few days beforehand. It could have been a coincidence though.

    I had a bloody show/ lost my plug 2 days prior to going into labor. After I lost it, I started walking to get things going (I was past 38 weeks). A big storm came, and I started having contractions while in the basement taking refuge from a tornado warning. Went to the hospital when they became 2 mins or so apart, and then my water broke... I had no other signs. This pregnancy is completely different, I am 34 weeks and feel like he is coming any day now.. Lots of abdominal pain, painful (but not regular) contractions, low back pain.. I keep telling my OB, but they say it's nothing to worry about. I hope he cooks a little longer!

    I had Braxton hicks for several weeks before both of my deliveries. With my first, I woke up to my water breaking, but otherwise had no special symptoms (and I was past my due date). With my second, the doctor thought I was going to deliver early because I was having contractions for nearly a month that were consistent and timeable, but they didn't last more than a few hours each day, and they didn't progress much. I ended up being induced at 41 weeks.

    This makes me worry because I've been SUPER regular the last four days (like 2-3/day as opposed to 1 every other day) and I read that that can mean labor is nearing.

    I'm 35.5 weeks and I feel like he's coming any day now but I don't know why I feel like that.
