I'm not talkin about contractions or water breaking. Did you feel different or just "off" before your labor started?
-
I felt great. Had no idea I would go into labor when I did!
-
I was having stronger (somewhat crampy) BH contractions during the days leading up to labor, so I suspected that things would be starting on their own soon. Other than that, I felt entirely normal.
The morning that I went into labor I lost part of my mucous plug. It was unmistakable and very surprising. I know that some people lose their mucous plug days before labor starts, but I was quite sure that losing mine signaled that labor would be starting that day. I was right.

@skibobrown: what did this feel like! Does it just like slip out or feel like youre passing something? I feel like im constantly checking for mine haha
-
I had braxton hicks for weeks beforehand! So I was just miserable! Every night it was like "this has got to be it" and it wasn't
So I was just anxious and doubting myself.

For me it felt wet and a little gooey... but mostly wet. I ran to the bathroom b/c I thought maybe my water was breaking.
Maybe TMI, but... When I wiped there was a little bit of pink-tinged blood, and then I looked down into the toilet and there was a whole bunch of wet egg-white-y mucous running out of me. I think it's really different for everyone though. It sounds like some people's mucous plugs are more like a giant booger.

@Nskillet: I feel like I'm constantly checking too!
I've been having a ton of contractions today, but I don't know that they're any different than the ones I've been having for weeks. Today I just feel... Off. I don't know that there's any other way to describe it. Just a little sick and off.

I was a week over due when I was induced and my LO was born two days later! I was anxious!!!
-
With my second, I felt sick. That I was getting sick to my stomach.
-
Cranky and resigned that I would be pregnant forever.
-
I felt fine. The normal pains and uncomfortableness of pregnancy, but I had no clue it was coming. Even though it was her due date.
-
i was super hormonal and super tired that day. i also thought i had a stomachache but it actually turned out to be contractions. i didn't think anything of it since i was only 37.5 weeks.
-
A couple days before I was a lot more tired than normal,
-
definitely felt off both times.
-
I felt fine!
So I was just anxious and doubting myself.
