"Signs labor is coming."🤗

Hey beautiful moms to be 😍I just wanted to post this since im feeling positive not like yesterday that I asked the same question I've asked in "Nurture" , in "Baby center" and oh gosh , IT WAS HORRIBLE how can women be so cruel to a girl .? They were comments like "You should be asking"How to get a job" or "how to live on your own""

And then these other lady's making fun of me and stuff 😐 I would respond all there comments trying to explain to them but they would make fun of me still and mock my comments and saying "GROW UP STOP BEING CHILDISH Jesh everyone has this😂😂😂" "that's why teens should stop getting pregnant" and also "Please keep this going this is so interesting 💁🏻" ... Made me have a horrible anxiety attack and I would just go back to see ! But today I'm feeling good 🤗 I notcied they are the ones that should grow up🙄 making fun of a 17 year old girl and then saying I should do something with my life and they are the ones on a blog waiting for drama to start... Let me just say if this happens to anyone just IGNORE THEM. I did the mistake and answer them but don't do it please.... Okay so enough with me here are some signs that labor might be coming soon !!! I found it on the internet thought they were intrested and might tell you gals🤗💕 ...

Some women have no signs at all before labor begins other than their first contraction.

OR MAYBE…the signals have been so slight or confused with other pregnancy symptoms that you haven’t noticed.

Acne

Due to increased hormone levels, some women may experience an outbreak of pimples in the last few days before labor begins.

OR MAYBE… you just ate too much chocolate.

Back Pain

Back pain is a quite common sign of impending labor. In fact sometimes back pain may in fact be contractions.

OR MAYBE… you’re just getting back pain from the extra weight and pressure of baby, or baby is in a posterior position.

Blood Pressure

Often blood pressure may go up in the last one or two days before labor begins.

OR MAYBE… it’s an indication of other problems that your doctor will need to check, such as preeclampsia.

Bloody Show

When you wipe, you may notice a brown or red display of blood that means labor is close.

OR MAYBE… it’s just a sign that labor is a week or two away.

Braxton Hicks

Although these fake contractions are common after 20 weeks gestation, they often become stronger or feel different shortly before labor begins, and occasionally may even be confused with real contractions.

OR MAYBE… you’re just experiencing more braxton hicks than usual.

Crankiness

It’s quite common to experience increased crankiness or moodiness in the days or hours before going into labor.

OR MAYBE… you’re just having a bad day.

Diarrhea

This is a quite common sign that labor will be starting soon. The body begins to clean out in preparation for birth. It can last anywhere from a few hours up to a week.

OR MAYBE… you’ve just picked up a virus or eaten some slightly off food.

Dilation & Effacement

This will need to be checked by a doctor or health care worker, but as labor nears, the cervix both thins (effaces) and dilates (opens up).

OR MAYBE… you’re just one of those women who dilates weeks before labor begins (some women can dilate up to ten weeks before birth, while others can go from completely closed to 10cm in a couple of hours.)

Dizziness

Some women experience dizziness in the hours before labor begins.

OR MAYBE… you just need to stop doing so much and have a high protein snack.

Easier Breathing

As the baby moves into the birth canal, a woman may find breathing is easier and her chest feels more comfortable.

OR MAYBE… sitting down and taking a break may be helping your breathe easier.

Energy

It’s not uncommon to experience a burst of energy as the body prepares for labor.

OR MAYBE… that good night’s sleep you finally got and a few healthy meals has made you feel a bit better.

Foetal Movement Changes

Often your baby will become more active before labor begins, or in some cases, movement will slow down (if baby stops moving you need to call your hospital.)

OR MAYBE… baby is just having a burst of energy or a lazy day.

Lightening

Many women experience a feeling of lightness in their upper body as baby moves down into the birth canal. This usually happens a week or more before labor in first time pregnancies and a day or so in later pregnancies.

OR MAYBE… baby is just having fun teasing you!

Losing Weight

It’s not unusual to lose several pounds in the last few days before labor starts.

OR MAYBE… you need to weigh yourself at the same time of day, for instance before a meal.

Losing or Gaining Appetite

Often women will find they’re either ravenous or feel completely full before labor begins.

OR MAYBE… baby’s been squishing your stomach more than usual.

Mucous Plug

The plug of mucous that seals the cervix and helps protect baby from infection may come away in pieces or a single blood streaked glob.

OR MAYBE…you’ve lost it early due to activity or the baby and it will grow back (yes, a plug can grow back if lost too early.) Some women don’t lose their plugs until they begin labor while others lose them days or weeks before.

Nesting

One of the most commonly talked about signs of impending labor, many women begin cleaning and re-arranging baby items in the days or hours before labor begins.

OR MAYBE… you’ve been putting it off for awhile and you’re doing it because you know you need to stop procrastinating!

Pet Behavior

Animals seem to be very aware of changes in their masters. It’s not unusual for dogs or cats to follow around pregnant women like a shadow in the hours before labor begins.

OR MAYBE… your pet is just feeling friendly.

Shivering

It’s not unusual for women about to go into labor to have uncontrollable shakes and shivers, on and off.

OR MAYBE… you just have low blood sugar or need a blanket.

Sleep

Before going into labor, many women say that experienced the best nights sleep they’ve had in weeks.

OR MAYBE... you’re finally getting used to the huge baby bump (is that possible?)

Sniffles

As labor nears, many women find they have an increase in runny noses due to the higher level of hormones in their body.

OR MAYBE… you’re starting to get a cold (and should go see the doctor!)

Swelling

Although you’ve probably had swelling in at least your hands or feet in the third trimester, it’s not unsual to experience more swelling or even swelling in new places before labor begins – for instance in the lips.

OR MAYBE… you just need to put your feet up more and get your partner to give you some more massages!

Throwing Up or Nausea

It’s not unusual to throw up shortly before labor begins as your body tries to clean itself out in preparation for delivery.

OR MAYBE… you just ate too much for dinner or have a stomach bug.

Waters Breaking

This is a sign that many people talk about but is actually not that common – in fact only 10-15% of labors begin with the amniotic sac breaking.

OR MAYBE… your waters can break but if it’s a little break, it can actually heal. If you don’t start labor within 72-96 hours after a major break, usually you’ll be induced.

Conclusions

You may have got a laugh out of this article – or you may have gotten some ideas about what to expect. Either way, the signs before labor begins can be very different for every woman.
