What are your signs of labor?

Question

I always read about signs that labor is coming, but I wonder what actual women who have given birth before say! I'm thinking something other than the usual "show" or water breaking. Things you felt (energized or tired?), something that happened (did you vomit a lot that day??), etc!
What were your signs that labor was near with your previous babies?

Answer

Horrible back pain. Couldnt walk. Pooped a ton, lol.

Answer

I knew real labor was coming with my son because I was walking through my contractions and had a random bout of diarrhea and almost shit myself. Lol. With my daughter I was induced so I didn't have any signs

Answer

I don't think I knew labour was near with my previous two pregnancies, however, my sister said she just felt "weird" the day before each of her labours.

Answer

My bladder felt extremely heavy that day, like it was about to fall out, I couldn't walk!
