What were your early signs of labor?

I started having back pain and cramps a few days before but they stopped. They started back and I went to the hospital and they kept me until I had my son.

With my son I had diarrhea and vomiting a week before and then that day of labor I started with period cramps and with my daughter no signs at all only period cramps that day that I had her. With her everything was really fast I was only in labor for 5 hours.

My water leaked

How early?
