Naturals Colostrum

What were your pre-labor symptoms? What was different in the days before you went into labor?

I'm only 36 weeks with #2, but I never experienced going into natural labor with my first as I had to be induced. In the past month or so I've noticed a lot of changes in my body which are all to be expected. However, in the last week I've had stronger Braxton Hicks contractions (sometimes lasting for hours and become somewhat painful), I've had an increase in colostrum leaking out, my breasts seem even fuller (they feel like they did after I had my first and I was breastfeeding, really firm), and I've had an increase in vaginal pressure. In the past three days I've also had more and more diarrhea.

I have a doctor's appointment in the morning and will bring all this up, but I would love to hear from other women what changes their bodies went through in the weeks leading up to labor. Thank you!

With my first one the day before i had her i had a lot of pressure and had to pee like every 5 minutes i also couldnt eat that day when i did i threw up and i couldnt sleep that night so i went into labor on 3 hrs of sleep. With my second i dont really remember things leading up to it except the night before i had A LOT of back pain and wasnt able to sleep at all that night. I had speratic contrations until 5 am and then i started having regular contractions and had her at 7:30 am. Good luck! Congrads!
