    I was 40+6, DH and I got into bed to watch some TV before going to sleep, and I was having stomach pain like I had to poop. I went to the bathroom a few times and then realized I was having pain in regular intervals, DUH!

    My water broke as my first sign of labor, at 41+4... contractions came fast and furious. 10 hrs, 45 mins later she was born!

    Membranes swept at 9 AM at dr office. Massive contraction at 4:30pm in the grocery store-almost puked! Few more big ones over the next few hours but nothing organized. Then around 10pm they got organized. About 7 minutes apart. By 2am they were 3 minutes apart. We went to the hospital. I was almost 4 cm. I stalled at 4 for a few hours and got an epidural. Contractions were 2 min apart. The dr broke my water at 8am-ish ? I was complete in about two hours. I pushed for 40 minutes and had him at 11:18am. 13 hours from organized labor beginning. 9 hours at the hospital.

    I woke up at 5 am thinking I had to use the bathroom. I did, then noticed a chunk of my mucus plug. I also then noticed some contractions - they were relatively painless, but coming every 2.5 minutes. They continued like this for the next 18 hours, before they ramped up into 'real' contractions that were much more painful, but about 5 minutes apart.
