I went into labor on a Saturday morning at 8:00 a.m. I knew I was going to have my baby that day. I got up feeling very calm and took a shower and pulled my hair back as much as possible and made sure my bag was packed. By noon, I called the doctor and went to the hospital. At 11:56 that night my baby boy was born. That was 13 years ago, but I remember feeling calm, confident and secure, all feelings I thought I would never have with all the worries of a pregnant mother. My mom said the night before I was unusually quiet and I remember my back huriting just a little bit. It was the best day of my life!

I had my regular check-up that afternoon and my doc said, Nope, its gonna be a few days.. I felt nothing different. I was on the phone with a friend and I noticed it was wet everywhere...water broke. Then I started to feel a LITTLE cramping. I jumped in the shower, shaved my legs and off we went. I made my husband stop and grab me a burger on the way too cuz I knew they were not going to let me have ANYTHING to eat til after the baby came. So glad I did!! Good luck!

I woke up at 8 am withcontractions 10 minutes apart. I had my baby at 7:30 that night. I had no idea days ahead of time. I had the nesting thing a week or so prior, but that was it.

I had 0 indications. truly the BH's had stopped for about a week. I had no nausea, no diarhea, no cramps, no bloody demonstrate, no mucus plug, no back discomfort, no longer something!! I purely awoke one morning, went to the lavatory and the contractions began each and every 2 to three minutes. I had my son at 2am top right here morning. i change into once 38 weeks and that i keep in mind that my dates were incorrect. i change into once easily traditionally in the direction of 37 weeks.

It was a surprise to me the first time, I was also 16 and rushed to the hospital way too soon. With my second they were going to induce and I was already in labor, now, my third, I'm having at home...so I'm anticipating this...it's the most exciting part!

I had no clue with my first...I was put on bedrest a few days before I went into labor...I got up to go to the bathroom and my water broke...I never even had contractions until a few hours after my water broke...

Took me by surprise, but 20 hours and 20 minutes after I woke with backache, I was holding my daughter :)
The nesting instinct thing that everone talks about missed me out!

no signs prior to labour. just got the contractions one night, called the dr., he said it might just be "braxton hicks" (false labour!) and said he would see me in the morning! went to the hospital and he casually tells me then, that I am having the baby! he forgot braxton hicks in a hurry then!
