Could this be the start of Labor?

[Misskylie]

Hello Ladies,

Well firstly I've been having Braxton hicks for about 3 months now (tightning of the belly and an out of breath feeling)
About an hour ago I had a BH, but this time it didnt go away, so my tummy is still very tight and I have that out of breath feeling, and then every so often I feel like Im having another BH on top of the "constant" BH, does that make sense? lol
I've also been to the bathroom twice with slight diarrhea.

Im obviously a first timer and have no idea whats going on!

good luck!

Sorry I don't know but wanted to wish you all the best! I'm a first timer too - hope you get some more signs soon !

[Misskylie]

Yea, well I've had two in 20 mins.. I dont think I ever been so excited to have diarrhea... strange isnt it.

Bugger! Just lost my post
Misskylie, sounds like you could be in prelabour! How exciting. Bear in mind that while your body is doing a fab job of preparing you for the big event, it could still be a little while away. I know you are no doubt far too excited to rest But that's the best idea for right now - getting as much rest while you can, because the real deal is kinda exhausting! And it's not far away!
GL and keep us posted

It could be the start of pre labour. If you start getting pain with it then I'd say for sure that it is. Best of luck with it all.

yeah i have to agree with satya on that one. the real deal for me was when the contrax started to feel like period pain, rather than tightening and pressure...ITH.

def good prelabour signs though and bring on those contrax!! good luck!
