Yikes!
Just as the title says really. Went into labour ward and she said its the start for me! Had period pains but they've stopped now . How long after show did ppl go into labour (if they have done before)?

I had a show on the Monday morning, then few contractions over the day which I put down as other things at the time. Contractions kicked off properly that evening and gave birth next day at 3.35pm. So it can mean it's imminent but also it might not be. X

I had my bloody show 2.5 weeks before my waters went!!

 

[Danielle77]

Oh gosh! Quite varied then. The midwife said because I have period pains aswell, she thinks it will all kick off very soon x

I had my bloody show at around 36 weeks, waters went at 38+5 and cervix open 1,5cm + few contractions then it all stopped. Had period pains for a good 12 hours, when they checked me again I was 4cm on period pains alone! Didn't stay that easy, but glad my body eased me in gently lol

Good luck hun, hope it does start for you soon xxxx
