how many first time moms had their baby early like anywhere from 36-38 weeks?? how many FTM had their baby past their…

i had my son at 39 weeks and my labor was like 26 hours long

my water broke at 36 weeks 4 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.

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

My first was 4 days after his due date. I was induced.

and not everyone loses their mucus plus to be honest! so I wouldn't go off that necessarily.

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

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!

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 :)

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 :)

I was 5 weeks early

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
