I had all those symptoms a couple weeks before I went into labor. :( I know, those last couple weeks are more miserable than words can say. And most people I know went into labor a few days after those symptoms came on. I was weird.
As long as your baby is moving as much as the dr said he/she should, you should be fine. Babies do slow down the last couple weeks, so as long as you are getting your kick counts in, the baby is fine. They tell you all that stuff to be on the safe side, but 999/1000, nothing is wrong.

You know, you do have many symptoms of being in early labor, but what I did not like is #5 your baby not being very active. I have three of my own and when either of them three did not move as much, especially at the end you best believe I was on the phone asking the doctor what I could do or what i should not do. This isn't to scare you , but just keep everything as safe as possible. Good Luck with your new baby!!

call the hospital or doctor now to be sure. I wasn't sure I was in labour too, I just felt 'sick' (nausea) and peed alot more then usual the day before. I did feel lower back pain too. Then I woke up 6AM the next day feeling a tummy ache, then the tummy ache came and went at regular and much more painful intervals...My daughter was 10 days early
everyone is different which is why you should call to help calm your concern. My friend, didn't know her water broke, felt a tiny tummy ache, walked to the hospital and gave birth 30 min later...she then later commented that it didn't feel that bad, but felt lucky she trusted her instincts as her baby was 6 weeks early (happy and healthy)

You are definitely close. I imagine what you are going through right now is what we like to call a "Burst of energy"!! It is normal and happens just a matter of days (in my experiences) before delivery.
If you are having contractions be sure to time them. The back pains, if they get to a point where you can barely tolerate it...call your Doctor because there is always a chance you might be in back labor. (I went through that with my first child and it wasn't fun!)
If you aren't in labor, then you will be very soon. Congratulations early and good luck. Hope this helps a little.

I would definitely call the doctor's office. If it is after hours, they will page the doctor on call at the hospital and the doctor will call you back. My concern is the baby's inactivity. Just for that reason alone, you should have made the call yesterday. Too many times the baby gets wrapped up in the umbilical cord. I hope all goes well for you.

it could be the start of labour or your body preparing you for labour. once you start getting shooting pains or a show then you know its coming. when the pains are about 3 - 4 mins apart call the doctor. as for the show, if you c any blood, call doctor again and he will advise you when to go in. i had a show at 06.00 hrs but didnt go into hospital till 8pm as i was able to handle the pains.

The diaroeah isnt very good, as is the baby being in-active. Go see a Doctor ASAP or call up a heath line, or the maternity Ward of the hospital. They can advise you better

If the fetus has not moved in hours that is a warning sign that something may be wrong so i would go to the hospital now.

Well, have you had any contractions? If you have, you need to pay attention to how close together they are. If no contractions yet, then no. But it sounds like you're headed there!

i had diaorrehea right before labour with all three of my pregnancies, along with a general feeling of unsettlement (excitement) and baby was quiet, so this may be it!!! good luck to you
