Labor Signs Anyone? 39w2d

Kaleena

I haven’t lost my mucous plug that I’m aware of, no breaking of the water. NOTHING. I’m 39w2d and READY TO HAVE MY BABY!! I’ve been having some lower back pain that goes down into my recital area, occasional pains in my waist. Nothing more, nothing less. My doctor hasn’t checked me since 36w and I wasn’t dilated at all, which was a good thing. Can anyone tell me what signs of labor approaching are? I feel like I’ve had some but it could all be in my head. Like my baby has slowed down on the movement quite a bit, I had an increased appetite tonight, and I’ve been WAY more exhausted than normal. Other than today, had a bit more energy that normal. I think I just want him to come so badly that I’m hoping every small thing is a sign of labor. So what have you mommas experienced right before labor happened and while it was actively happening? Had some bleeding about 2 weeks ago, barely anything and seemed like it was coming more from my butt area but idk. Doctors told me not to worry about it. Not sure if that was my bloody show or not.
