how many first time moms had their baby early like anywhere from 36-38 weeks?? how many FTM had their baby past their due date?? im getting nervous. as im getting closer to giving birth.... im nervous. lol plus will i know hen my water breaks.. like will i know the difference between that and pee?? and how will i know when im losing my mucous plug?? my hospital is 30 mims from my house.... my doc. said shes not comcerned about me making it to hospital on time... how long did it typically take for u to actually have your baby??
Oh, and I had went on leave from work 2 days before that because I couldn't handle it anymore. My body totally knew she was coming. My body hurt EVERYWHERE and I was so exhausted that I could hardly stay awake at work. I was done. lol. You'll know :)
Mine was 2 weeks early, I never lost my plug that I was aware of (probably in the hospital after epidural), they had to induce me so my water broke there. I went in for contractions (very strong, long lasting and super close together!), turns out I was dilated to a 4 but never progressed after that. I was in active labor for 6 hours, but from the time contractions were noticeable enough to start counting, I had her 12 hours later.
I always wondered about that stuff too but everybody is different! Believe me, you'll know when you're in labor and you should have more than enough time to get to the hospital :)
I was induced a week exactly after my due date. My water broke in the hospital and it was a pop I felt, extremely noticeable! Don't be nervous, it's a natural thing and it's so worth it!
friend of minr delivered naturally no meds no IV at 42 weeks healthy baby and she was moving around a lot in less than a week
and not everyone loses their mucus plus to be honest! so I wouldn't go off that necessarily.
My water broke at 38wks and I didn't have ANY signs of labor literally like 5 days before my labor started. When my watery broke I kinda had a big pop feeling inside, then a gush like 10 second after the pop. lol believe me you will know. you're body will tell you. you will know what is going on is NOT normal. my early labor started with period cramps that just progressively got worse and worse over about 3 days
I had my son at 37 weeks. My water broke before having any contractions. You will know when it breaks. Mine slowly leaked. It's like a gush that you can't control and it will continuously leak throughout the day. I felt a pop right before it broke.
when the doctor broke my water and i got up to pee it was like peeing myself but with blood and there was no stopping it from dripping out lol also i was 41 weeks and got induced and it was really nice to have all that control
