Nearly time, feeling nervous

Hi everyone, I'm a first time mum and am currently 38 weeks pregnant. I'm finally on maternity leave, which is amazing as I was really struggling with my commute and a long day at work.  But now I have time to rest, my anxiety is really peaking....

I have been doing hypnobirthing, so I'm not scared about the birth as such, it's more I don't like that it could happen at any time! And even though I've read up on signs of labour, I find I would really like to know the pre-signs -   If that makes sense?  My boy is feeling lower and the pressure is bad down below. I also have been feeling tickled in a way down there and my night sweats have gotten so bad I sometimes wake up thinking my waters have broken! (they definitely haven't) .

Everything that I feel now I wonder if it's nearly time. 

Can anyone remember how they felt the day or two before the actual real signs appeared?
