The bloody show or mucous plug is not always visible at the beginning of labor, especially for first babies. It is possible that the mucous plug does not come out until the birth of the baby and you won't ever see it. Contractions can be felt in many different body parts, my aunt had labor pains in her legs, I had 2 babies with back labor. You may be having Braxton Hicks contractions which are practice contractions. All pregnancies, labors, and deliveries are different, but it is common for contractions to start out irregular and light. They may gradually increase in length, frequency, and strength or they may go from mild to hard quite quickly. Early contractions are often described as feeling similar to menstrual cramps. I suggest that you time the cramping. If it becomes regular and stronger, you are probably in labor.

congrats!!!
this could very well be what you have been waiting for..you could be in the beginning stages of labor!! its scary the first time around because no matter what people tell you, you still aren't 100% sure of whats going to happen next.
it could be the baby moving into place - which is still a sign that its almost time!
as long as you're not in real pain, i'm pretty sure you dont have to call the doctors in yet.
good luck to you!

Could be contractions. Contractions late in pregnancy may or may not be an indication of labor. If they are irregular than this is normal, but if they become more regulated and closer together than (5 min) then call your doctor and head for the hospital. Good luck!

Sounds like your body is preparing for labor and pain that low may be from the baby bearing down.Good luck.

it could be early signs of labour as you are 39 weeks preagnant, how often are they, do they come and go if so how often, time them see if there is a pattern, i hope you have got your bags pack 4 hospital, and you no where your support team is and good luck, the baby will be here very soon
