Labor stage?

[Missy8809]

I am 36-37 weeks pregnant, yesterday I was miserable. I could not sit straight up, could not bend over, had horrible lower back pain, was not very hungry or energectic, and was very tender around my area, not to mention an emotional train wreck. Today I felt the same, but also my hips and crotch and extreme upper thighs are killing me. I can hardly walk.        My mom and grandma say it's "stage 1" of labor.....

Any other opinions?

I guess ya never know...I'm 39 weeks tomorrow and have just started with the actual thigh pain the last couple days. I've had hip pain forever and pubic area pain for the last few days. I know my baby is -1 so he's pretty low. Today I'm starting to feel almost bloated...period like.

I got upper thigh and lower back pain and then that night went into labor. Not sure if its a sign since I had lower back pain for weeks but only got the thigh pain that day.
