Nothing now. Nothing all night long. Hoping this is the calm before the storm.

On the bright side your house is clean :/ lol babies can be stubborn, especially the first time. Try to be patient and get prepared for when baby finally decides it's time.

Get active, go for a walk or even just walk circles around the house. Best of luck :)

What do you guys think? Rest and wait it out? Or get moving and see if they regulate?

Well I was up half the night with pretty painful contractions. They got to about 4-6 min apart while intensifying. Woke up my hubby to tell him we need to go soon, and they slowed down!! Wth?! That was around 330 and I was able to go back to sleep. Now its 750 and I'm awake and contracting again. We'll see if they stick around.

With my first I just ended up bleeding and throwing up before labor. With this one it is totally different. I am 37 weeks and also pooping a lot (which I dont ever do very much) so I'm in the same boat.

This is my first, so i dont know by personal experience, but they do say that becoming ill, or having multiple bowel movements are a sign of labor soon. Good Luck!
