Signs of labour?

[missxkatie]

I keep having trickles of well not thick but thin watery mucus runnning down my leg past couple of days, my stomach feels as though its swelling, a bit like when you 'orgasm' lol! And sleeping through my heartburn is unbearable, baby doesnt move as much but he moves enough if you understand. I have in my head that this week or next week baby will arrive everyday the pains get a lil more unbearable am I just nervous lol? Or is this all normal?

Ya never no! hopefully will stay in a bit longer ya still a bit early!!!

Your right at the end of your pregnancy, it gets hard now, uncomfortable and all this weird stuff starts happening. Wait till you get fanny cramp!!!....unbearable

I had horrible heartburn, what helped me slightly was to have a glass of milk just before i went to sleep. Use to help it enough for me to fall sleep anyway.

idk hun- u never kno! u may hav ur LO early- but maybe not! tbh i was the same, i thought my baby would be early, and i had a baby-gaga google ticker, and every week i would read about her development- one week i remember reading something that said "most women are convinced their baby will arrive early- but then they are left waiting and go overdue!" or summit like that. and i thought "im different, im sure mine will be early!" especially when at 36 weeks i had some false labour pains but she wasnt early lol she arrived on her due date so i did end up one of those women mentioned in the baby-gaga article!
but of course, not all women are wrong, yours could indeed be early!
sorry that didnt really help did it

lets hope ur little boy stays in at least another 2 weeks anyway

Update

Well on saturday just gone I thought my waters had gone, about 4.30am I felt a trickle down my leg, obviously I rang m/w and she suggested popping a pad on and checking in a few hours if it was soaked or not. Anyways when I woke up it was still dripping so I rang delivery suite and they said come up and well check you over. They told me my waters had'nt broken and that my cervix was soft and that my bump is only measuring 32cm instead of what they thought would be about 36 AND when I went for a pee-pee my dad asked if they thought I would be early because on the monitor I was having tightening and backaches every about 20 minutes, painful compared to normal & the registrar said she wouldnt be surprised if I have him by sunday. Rahhh I want him now!
