That was my expereince too! Pink watery spots for 1-2 weeks before, and then 2 days before the contractions started it got heavier. One morning I woke up to red mucousy show and mild contractions and baby was born 2 days later.
Well I hope she comes out soon then!! An early Christmas present would be fantastic!!! Was it your first Bub though? Did you have him early? They say your first one is always on time/late, I wonder if this is the case?
