I kept complaining about how uncomfortable I was, and as my due date arrived I had went to the drs that day I was due and was only .5 a cm dialated and of course I cried thinking I was never going to have our son..... so we got home that night and my husband was being so sweet, he's like let's take the dog on a walk. So we did but he made me run the blocks to the point my water ended up breaking and he after and boom I was in full term labor had my son shortly after.... good luck momma

Thank you! I did feel some pressure and braxton hicks after I walked the stairs all evening on my last day of work. It is gloomy and rainy here so maybe I will head to the mall!
