How did you feel in the days leading up to your labor?

Question

I want to hear your stories! I'm 34 weeks and as my due date is approaching, I am becoming more and more curious!

Answer

I am 33+4 and I'm soooooo uncomfortable. Pelvic pain plus I'm throwing up again like I did in my first trimester. I love my daughter to death and I can't wait until she comes. She has everything she needs I'm just waiting on her arrival. This pain is all worth it for my 3rd and last princess💜

Answer

Answer

I had Braxton hicks for about a month or more before my due date...sometimes they woke me up and were so strong and regular I thought for sure it was time...this got so annoying and I learned to ignore it...my baby had also dropped weeks before and I was loosing parts of my plug, but still baby wouldn't come...every time I was checked at my apt I hadn't dilated and was only 50% effaced...well my due date came and went and by 10 days past I started having mild contractions but brushed it off as usual Braxton hicks...it wasn't until about 24 hours after those first mild contractions that I realized this was it and headed to the hospital...so...all those "signs" I thought for sure were leading to labor were in fact nothing...

Answer

Answer

I had irregular contractions on and off for a week before I went into labor. I felt okay but not the greatest. Doula told me I was in pre labor and my body was getting ready. Seems like she was correct.

Answer

We got a couple of weeks. We can do this😂😌

Answer

I felt just as crappy as I did the last 3.5 weeks. The only difference is I was having a really hard time sleeping and I was having a lot of BMs, and i couldn't walk well at all. My pelvis wouldn't allow me to walk a lot

Answer

In the days leading up to my son's arrival, I had a ton of contractions and severe hip pain. Honestly the hip pain (which went away) made the contractions seem easy once active labor kicked in.

Answer

My son was born 3 days past due date. I was still out and about at the shops on my due date. Could tell it wasn't time yet. My water broke slowly 2.5 days later.
