Did anyone “spontaneously” go into labor?

Question

I am 39+5 with my first and no signs of labor. I am 1-2cm dilated and 100 percent effaced. I had a membrane sweep yesterday and nothing.
I’ve never had a contraction, no loss of mucus plug, baby hasn’t dropped, no blood, literally zero signs. 
I honestly feel great. 
Anyone just spontaneously go into labor before with any signs like contractions for a few days or slowly losing plug etc? I’m dying over here to be done

Answer

With our first I had NO labour signs. I was closed up so tight they could barely attempt stretch and sweeps lol. Then at 40plus 4 my water broke with no pre-labour anything!

Answer

The only thing I had was braxton hicks for weeks. I figured I would never go into labour. But sunday I had period like cramps in the afternoon. By the evening they got worse. Never lost my mucous plug, no bloody show, nothing. I went from 4cm to 10cm in 3 hours. It happened so quick i was so surprised lol.

Answer

With my daughter I was 1 cm at 40 weeks and had a sweep and within 24 hours I was in labor. I never lost my plug that I know of and they had to break my water.

Answer

With my first I had nothing. I was 0 cm and felt totally normal. One day I just woke up with contractions.

Answer

I did with my first and second. I was 38+3 when I went into labor with my first, and 41 weeks with my second. Currently 39+3 with my third. I had a membrane sweep today per my request, I have never had one before. This is the first pregnancy I’ve ever been checked or had a sweep. I’m so ready to be done. Will be having my third home birth.

Answer

Sounds just like when I had my son. Even before I went to bed that night at 39w6d, I felt great. Woke up at 1:30 to pee and bits of my mucous plug was in the toilet. Contractions started shortly after that and I walked around my house to keep things going. My water broke at 4 am. Got to the hospital at 6:30, and he was born at 10:45 am. I dilated from a 5 to 10 and ready to push in ten minutes. 4 pushes and he was out.

Answer

With my first baby I was totally prepared to go late because I had no signs of labor at all and then spontaneously went into labor at 39+5 and she was born the next day. Now I’m 39+4 today with my second baby and not having any signs this time either so hoping I have a repeat of last time and go into labor in the next couple of days!

Answer

I did!

Answer

I did! I was picking up my daughter's room and felt some kind of liquid, checked and saw the tiniest piece of my mucus plug. Didn't think anything would happen since I lost mine over the course of a week with my first but contractions started 10 mins later, had baby 4.5 hours after that!

Answer

I went into labor 3 weeks early with essentially no signs that I was going to do so. Randomly my water broke !
