question about going into labour...
Hi all mummies!
Im due in 13 days (and counting!) but i wanted to know how many of you experienced a show/ waters breaking and who didn't?
I would love for my waters to break coz i think that way i would know for definate that something was happening but i know it doesn't happen for everyone and out of curiosity would be interested to know what happened or didn't happen for you.
thanks. xx

In a Christmas play rehersal infront of the whole school (I am a teacher in an SEN school) - luckily no one else knew but I did!!!! !
Good luck for the birth xxx
When i went in to labour I started getting contractions at 7am and had diarrhea. Also had some brown bloody discharge. My contractions where never fully regular before i went to hospital. They started off every 10 mins, then 5 mins, then i would have a few only 2 mins apart but then they would go back to 10 mins. When i went to hospital at 6pm i was expecting to be sent home but i was 5-6cm dilated.
My waters had to be broken for me to try and speed things up as my little mans heart beat kept dropping.
Oh by the way I went 2 weeks over due incase you wanted to know that as well.
Good luck with it all.

I have kept a little eye on you as I remember all you went through on pregnancy - cant wait to see you and lo over here!!
I havent gone "into labour" for over 15 years and I didnt have my waters break but the night before I had the HUGEST energy burst! I could not sit still, I was just soooo full of energy I nearly created my own pathway in the garden!
Although I have blocked out most of the "labour pain" I seem to recall that in the early hours of the morning the majority of my pain seemed to be in my back and yet again - I made another pathway at 4 o'clock in the morning!
See you soon hon

And with my daughter I didnt have a show but my waters started leaking on the friday and I went into labour on the following wednesday. (38 weeks)
In my natural labour I had a show about an hour before I had baby (but I didn't realize until about 10 mins before I had her!) and my waters only broke when I started pushing, my baby was born 4 mins after the waters went.
Good luck and hope the time flies until you meet your lo!

I went into labour 1am that morning (2 weeks before due date) however my waters didnt break until they where wheeling me down a corridor fully dilated (they didnt realise i was so dilated till i was shouting i wanted to push!) legs open wide and they broke in front of some poor bloke!!!! he must have got an eyeful!!
cringe! but i didnt care!
good luck!!!
With my 2nd Iwas up all the night with severe diarreah and stomach cramps, it felt exactly like food poisoning but was my body clearing itself out ready and I went into labour at 8am. It isnt uncommon apparently but is rarely talked about as a warning sign so be aware of it.
Good luckxxx
