Early Labor?

Samantha

I'm wondering if anyone has any old wives tales or anything that felt or noticed that indicated they were going to have and early labor/delivery.

This is my third and my first I had no idea. Just boom I'm in labor, my second I had preterm labor at 32 weeks and spent 5 weeks on bed rest but I had no warning with her either.

This baby I just have this feeling in my gut that she will be here and early. Along with extreme discomfort constantly. Joint pain. Exhaustion. And some seriously intense Braxton Hicks.

Thoughts? Ideas? Ways you knew?
