'Early' birth (after 37 weeks)

[Pinnie]

I'm curious about 'earlier' births, after 37 weeks.
How did you feel, what did you notice etc?

I'm 37+3 and have been feeling changes.
My gut is rumbling constantly, my breast are sore and I'm either going to the toilet multiple times a day or constipated.

Could these be indicators that something is happening or not?

I didnt go early but i did have all those symptoms for a few weeks before birth. For a few days all my symptoms left then a couple of days before i went into labour i had flu like symptoms. Freezing, stuffy nose, achey, headache and the runs. Your body could simply just be preparing itself how many weeks are you? Xx

I've had all these symptoms too - and am currently in the flu symptom type stage, however I am only 28 weeks and really hope nothing happens in the next few weeks! Xx

All seems normal to me and I'm 38+5 x

I had my daughter at 38 weeks and the only symptoms I had was losing snot like discharge for 5 days before. I felt completely normal otherwise x

I had my daughter at 37+2 and didn't have any symptoms at all until my waters went.
