the big day

The day that you went into labor (not being induced) did you feel normal when you woke up or did your body feel different and you had a lil feeling that you were going into labor that day? Just wondering i have 22 days left

I woke up feeling exactly the same as the two weeks beforehand. Nothing different at all. I woke up and really really had to pee (of course), hauled myself out of bed, and my water broke all over my slippers. It totally surprised me - it was my due date and I was absolutely expecting to go late.

Was totally surprised bc I was 5 weeks early.  Had back labor all day but thought it was regular back pain..then water broke.  By the time I got to hospital they could see her hair :)

I got bursts of energy to clean the whole house and cool casseroles.  My husband tells me that when I start organizing the coat closets, he knows it's almost time.

I was cramping all night and it wasn't getting more consistent but it did keep me up all night but u had cramping like that for awhile but as soon as they got a little more painful I knew because they started getting more and more painful very fast.
