    Hi Amy, i had a 'strange' feeling, i just knew i was in labour. I felt unwell the night before, can't quite describe it exactly but just 'didn't feel right', then the next morning i had diarrhoea, then half an hour later started to get my first contractions but felt really calm in the process, even though she was 6 wks early!

    Hi Amy,
    I have to say I didnt feel any different before labour though I did mistake some very strong braxton hicks for labour the night before. Other than that I felt just the same as usual

    Period like pains for 2 days before hand (though i think they may have been v mild contractions). I had no feelings apart from that. I was in denial that anything was ever gonna happen because i wanted it to so much! lol x

    My waters broke in the morning and then i spent the rest of the day cleaning everything, stopping every time i had a contraction. They got gradually sronger and closer together, then i couldn't clean anymore!!
