Am I in early labor?

[FutureRenken]

I'll say first this is a bit of a TMI post...all day my stomach has been acting funny with random braxton hicks contractions then all of a sudden nausea hits me bad then thing i'm rushing to the restroom cause diarrhea hit me out of no where (sorry). According to my dr both are signs of early labor. I have been slowly losing my mucus plug but no bloody show yet. With my contractions so random I can't tell if this is early labor or not. This is my second child but with

Yes it does sound like you're in early stagiest of labor. I'm in labor and have been having the same things for days! Lol. I'd definitely see my OB or go to L&D

Cuz I didn't recognize labor the first time and I dialated really quickly so i'm nervous I won't recognize it again. This is my bfs first so he's nervous too and tends to not be fully supportive cuz of the emotions he keeps hidden. He loves to brush off what I say so i'm over worried he'll do that when I want to go to the hospital saying that I'm over acting. Random things like that.

You'll be fine :) why are you nervous? X

You're starting to lose your mucous plug which is normal.. it just sounds like your body is preparing itself for labour. If you get any blood or a show or very strong cramps or even back labour (done women don't feel painful cramps as contractions they just get backache) then call a doc. Otherwise I wouldn't worry :) good luck it won't be long xx

Thanks! I needed some advice cuz when I told my bf he said i'm crazy its too early, hence early labor but he's not willing to accept it maybe sooner than later.

Just seen your post about not feeling contractions previous labour.. have you had a bloody show?

You can be in early stages of labour for weeks. You will know when its all starting. People said it to me and I thought oh yeah great advice but its soo true.. you'll.know a real contraction when you feel it. However if your worried call your doc again xx

How far are you?

Sorry posted too early. But with my first I didn't show any early signs and was admitted 5 cm dialated cuz I didn't know what contractions felt like. So my question is what do you ladies think? I need some advice cuz I haven't the slightest clue.
