Very early labour /TMI

I know I’ve made a couple of posts about early labour in the last few days. But I’ve been keeping sort of track of things in the last 3 days especially, and I noticed this : Loose stools but not diarrhoea Light period like cramps Light back aches Sort of pressure type pain in my bum Went from waking up every hours to pee during the night to barely waking up 2 times. And in the last 2 weeks ( every few days ) I would have this discharge that looked mucussy stretchy a but yellowish at times. My due date is October 17th so I’m getting closer and closer. What do we think ladies ?

I think your body is preparing, and your baby has probably dropped so you don't need to pee as much. Go for regular walks bounce on your yoga ball and stay energised and hydrated. But remember this is all just your body preparing you can still go 2 weeks past your DD People need to remember first babies are rarely on time and DD are made up by NHS

Yeah once I got those period pains I went into labour that day. For me I had intervals of period pains starting at 6am, and it ramped up and up that day. Was 6cm by 7pm. Can’t comment on the mucus stuff as I lost my plug and waters while in the bath so I didn’t really see it.

@Fatima this is my third baby. But it’s been the most complicated and painful pregnancy. My first and second were born at 37 and 39 weeks and I had no symptoms whatsoever. Went to sleep woke up at 4am in labour ready to push.

This could indicate early labour approaching. It’s good that you’re keeping track of these changes. Consider contacting your healthcare provider to discuss these symptoms and get professional advice. Stay calm and prepared for the possibility of early labour. If the symptoms intensify or if you experience any new or concerning symptoms, seek medical advice promptly. Rest, stay hydrated, and listen to your body during this time. Prioritise your well-being and reach out to your midwife for personalised advice.

@Maria in that case youre mostly likely going to go in labour soon

@Fatima I really hope so because this pregnancy has been so painful. Nothing like my others

@Maria bless you, I'm so sorry to hear that
