Did your labour start the same each time??

No not really all 5 labours were different, but had some similar things

#1- started with contractions, few hours later had the show, they broke my waters as her head crowned
#2- they broke my waters and gave me the drip to start contractions, lost show during labour
#3- waters broke at home at night, no contractions, so the next day gave me drip to start contractions, lost show during labour
#4- lost show few hours before contractions started, waters never broke baby was born in the sack
#5- contractions started, lost show during labour, waters broke during labour

That was the quick version
Good luck hunni, hope this is the real deal!!!

All were slightly different.

DS1 i lost my plug some time the week before things begun. One night went to bed with the faintest of twinges and woke up at about 2am with them stronger and regular. By morning things were on their way. DS was born 4 days before his due date.

DS2 i can't remember when i lost my plug but over the days prior to the birth i'd had some twinges, very irregular and nothing that convinced me anything was going to happen. I woke up on the Tuesday morning feeling nothing at all, told DH to go to work then when i was in the shower my waters broke. I had no other signs of labour at that stage but at a scheduled GP appt i was told i had to go to the hospital to be induced as i had merconium in my waters. By the time i was organised and on my way contatctions had begun. DS was born 1 week prior to his due date.

DD i'd had some ewcm but not a lot and nothing that i thought was my plug. I'd had a lot of twinges on and off but it was all false signs of labour. I'd had days of feeling so comfortable and i was starting to worry i'd go over. Woke up one night/morning because i couldn't sleep so i got up. Sitting at the computer i felt tightenings across my belly that were different to what i'd been feeling prior. They come and went but were in a way quite gentle. This carried on throughout the next day, getting only slightly stronger. By 5pm things were really happening. DD was born day before her due date.

Hope things happen for you soon, the waiting and anticipation is so frustrating. Can't wait to hear your little one is in your arms
