- Labor Signs and the #1 Way to Know For Sure it’s Labor
✅ FREE Mini Birth Class - www.builttobirth.com/free-min...
IS THIS LABOR? The question on every mama’s mind as she approaches her baby’s arrival. It’s easy to become obsessed with all the sensations from your body and wondering if it means that labor is on its way, but the end of pregnancy should be a time where you find joy in your patience as you’re preparing for birth, focusing your energy on how to have a calm birth, and waiting for your baby to fully develop.
In this video you will learn the most common signs of labor and which of the labor signs is the MOST RELIABLE labor symptom of them all. We talk all things from pooping during labor to answer your questions “Is pooping a sign of labor?” to nausea before labor to, again, answer that question, “Is nausea a sign of labor?”, losing the mucus plug, what do contractions feel like and then when to go to the hospital for labor.
By the end of this video, you’ll know the symptoms of labor so that you can stop obsessing over every little sensation, how to avoid any false alarm L&D pit stops if you’re giving birth at hospital, and feel more confident about your question about, “How long should I labor at home?” Most of the time, those early labor pains like period cramps during labor can be completely dismissed and forgotten about until the real thing sets in!

Same here! though your little one is probably out by now. 😍 I'm 37 weeks today
@@JoanaGalvaoDesign same 39 + 4 weeks and every little cramp im thinking im about to give birth lol
38 weeks 😂😅
Joana Galvao I’m 37 today! And super nervous with every new pain lol
Joana Galvao I’m 37 weeks today
Bridget: “reduced appetite is often a sign of labour impeding”
Me to my husband: “yeeaaaa I don’t think today is the day” 😂
Lol
Lol so funny
I ate during contractions while dilated to 8. 😆
Bahahha
😅😅
Days (like 3days) before i went into labor i felt constipated n my stomachache WAS "crampy". My first day in labor i felt cramps but i wasnt due for another 3-4 weeks so i assumed they were Braxton hicks (false labor contractions). I woke up and went to work...i made the slowest walk to the bus stop . Luckly i didnt have to wait long to get transportation as i got a ride straight to work immediately with a co worker. Later that day i experienced cramping / lighter contractions all day. By the end of that day i left work n headed back to the bus stop. I couldn't stand up straight....i was in such discomfort. Luckily again not 10 mins of waiting i saw the same co worker n got a ride straight home. Thank Jesus.
I didnt eat. I planned on cooking that day but was in too much pain to further consider it nor did i have much appetite. The next day was my day off from work thank God (otherwise i would have probably gone in to work again lol). That day i had more intense abdominal cramping on n off which i now know were "contractions". They got worse later that night. I couldn't sleep n was up from midnight in discomfort. Moaning n tossing n turning n cramping by now i wisesd up n started timing these " crampings" as i began to suspect they might be contractions. By 5:40 am my mom came n we left for the hospital. We arrived after 6am n I had my baby by 8:30am that morning.
My boy is now 2 months n 3 weeks old. Hes the joy and love of my life. I am so happy to be a mom for the first time...
...although currently single God has been my comfort n our provider and strenght. I was single my entire pregnancy as well ...as my ex and i had separated apparently right after i conceived and we had no clue. I had an easy pregnancy (half of it passed without me even knowing i was pregnant ), i had a quick n easy delivery with 0 complications. I did an all natural delivery (not induced, pushed from the vagina, no epidural).I experienced 0 tearing or cutting of the vagina, only slight bruising according to the nurse. I felt 100% recovered n strenght immediately after delivery. I did bleed heavily for 2 days, then moderately the 3rd day n lightly like spotting up until my 6 weeks checkup. I did NOT experience post partum and ive just been so happy.
Whenever i feel cluless n lost or scared or frustration i just lift my head to Jesus and talk to him, "God im so lost i dont know how to keep this baby alive, i dont know what to do nx, i feel lonely, i feel overwhelmed etc...please help me" . Instantly i always feel comforted n i just seem to get past whatever problem im facing.
Praise Jesus!!!!!
..... as i didn't think i could have kids after trying for so long....but i prayed the prayer of faith n finally 5 months after that prayer i discovered i was 5 months pregnant. Halleluia!!!!
Jesus still answers prayers
Was your child birth natural or C-section?
38 weeks and I’ve hated every second of pregnancy (but I’m super excited for my baby and I LOVE her already), I’m just so so SO ready to be done with it so I can start healing.
I couldn’t agree more.
Also 38 weeks today and absolutely haven't enjoyed a single second of being pregnant. Wish she would come already... I'm ready to be done😂.
@@nicola2713 almost 38 weeks, I’m over it!!! Lol has your labor started yet??
@@ninav. I’m 39 weeks, due next Monday and I’m just waiting lol. My stomach is rock hard whenever I walk or do anything but sit and I’m having back pain. Hopefully it progresses soon!
@@ninav. I had a 4 and a half hour labor. Contractions progressed really quickly. I'm so glad she is out in the world
She is the most precious little angel.
Kept telling my husband “today is THE day, get prepared” for two weeks and nothing happened😅
Hahaha
Hahaha
Same here! Every morning I say “they’re coming soon, everything feels so much sorer today surely it can’t get worse than this!” Yet here I am, still pregnant 😂
@@jellbellaaa LOL...You know what? I ended up with 40+3 weeks!!!! Good luck with your twins!
Me the past 3 weeks lol, today is my due date and I've accepted that I do not know my body, what labor is going to feel like and do not trust my intuition any more :P
I watched a lot of your videos during my pregnancy and I truely believe your advice saved me and my baby's life. I had HG throughout my entire pregnancy. It was so bad I had to be hospitalized almost every 3 weeks and given fluids (and sometimes liquid potassium) because of the nonstop puking. I ended up weighing less after birth than I did before the pregnancy. I went in to labor 8 weeks early and had my little girl at home in our bathroom with no medical assistance. My husband was there but he didn't even have enough time to help before she came out. I was having a pretty normal day, nausea as soon as I woke up but it had subsided and I was feeling pretty good for most of the day. Until about 6pm when I started feeling lower back cramps accompanied by a very strong feeling like I had to poo that would come and go but every time I tried nothing would happen (now I know it was back labor). And my nausea came back FULL force. I couldn't keep even water down and I eventually was so worn out I just tried to sleep it off. That didn't help either, I was waking up every 15 minutes puking bile because I didn't have anything left in my stomach. Eventually I decided to try hopping in to the shower because that had always been the only thing that seemed to help throughout my entire pregnancy for the HG. And then I remember feeling like I REALLY needed to poo so I hopped out and went across to the toilet, still butt naked, puke bowl in my lap. This was about 2am now and I didn't have any lights on. All of a sudden I felt something splash on the floor at my feet and, delirious from all the puking, I thought I'd spilt my bowl but then I felt myself push to poo really hard and something shifted. But nothing came out. And I reached inside and when I saw blood on my fingers I had a moment of realization. I reached in one more time and I could feel her head halfway out already. I immediately screamed for my husband. I remember thinking "oh god, it's too early" and then "oh god she probably can't breathe!" And as soon as he flung the door open it took one push, and I pulled her right out. As my husband called 911 I realized she was moving but her umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck and she wasn't crying and she was getting darker and darker. My instincts kicked in and I unwrapped it and immediately put her up against me and started vigorously rubbing her back. And when she started coughing and screaming I cried with relief. We were both covered in blood but we were okay. My husband tied off the umbilical cord and not 5 minutes later came the placenta out in to the toilet just before the ambulance arrived. I think you're encouraging words helped me because I knew my body could do it and my instincts worked. Even though I was terrified my body and motherly instincts knew exactly what to do, just like you say in all of your videos. Your words kept me from panicking and if that had happened I just don't know if she would have made it. She was 4lbs 8oz at birth. Now she's 2 months old and just over 9lbs. She's absolutely healthy and beautiful. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I just can't say it enough but you are amazing and what you do really makes a difference.
Wow. Thank you for sharing! I’m so glad things turned out okay for you and baby ♥️
What a journey! So glad it all went well. You wrote an absolute thriller here!
Omg you're such a strong woman!
Thank you for sharing , going through HG myself & it’s the most difficult thing ever … this gives me courage
Reading your words made my jaw dropped wider and wider 😭 I was currently on my 38th week, and been hearing stories about a friend who was also pregnant with HG, but hearing your birth story truly made me hold on to my seat, but also amazes me!! You are so strong and your mind is stronger 😭 and your instincts worked right. I'm glad you are good now, and your baby girl grows healthy and beutiful ❤️
I’m at 36 weeks now and literally feel like im going to labor with the slightest cramps.😂 I’m just so excited. Goodluck to all the future mommies out there and i hope you have a safe delivery.💕
Lmao same 😂
❤️
I had my baby 4 months ago and would watch your channel religiously. Don’t worry moms you will know your in labor . If you have to question it with a maybe you probably are not. Worse pain ever, but you forget it once you see your child I promise!
babybangstfu u are so real 🤗
Thank you so much, I have about 2 weeks and a few days left and I’m nervous I won’t know if I am or not!❤️🙏🏻
I have 7wks to go and i can't wait 😜
That’s not true, you can be in labor and not know it
Bless you. I'm almost 37 weeks & I am overanalyzing EVERYTHING. I'm like some of this feels like it's been going on for a couple weeks now! Lol, thank you for your comment!
I’d literally sneeze and think it’s labour signs!😂 I’ve had enough already 39weeks 5 days
Same here 38 weeks and 2 days
Same here 39 weeks and 3 days
38 weeks pregnant and I am so sick of everyone around asking when baby is coming and to walk walk walk...I just want to enjoy my last moments as mama of one. However cant help get influence at times and obsess about labour.
Or they legit see my huge belly and still say "No baby, yet??!"
Duh!!! So annoying... She'll come when she comes, people. Relax! lol
Enjoy your final days and good luck, Mama!!
Baby girl is healthy and here..3 weeks old now..and I am loving every moment. I had a short labour and I cant help but thank God first and all the videos too.
@@pkj131 awe congratulations. Pls do tell a little bit about it. I'm a first time mom and counting my weeks😩😬 #33wks
@@ginalex4life thank you...well all I can say is it's a different experience for everyone. First time I had a long labour. 24 hours but I felt like my body and mind got time to process it all so I was alot more calmer. But second time, my water broke first which I didn't expect. I had an hour long walk the day before and went to bed normal. Woke up to pee when I got to bed and turned. My water just poured.went to hospital and I was only 2 cm.they told me to wait but after an hour I started having contractions which were 5 mins apart. Then 4 hours later I was ready to push. Everything was fast I wasn't calm at all. It just wasn't how I imagined it.she was coming fast and I didn't expect that.it was alot more painful but quicker. Thanks to God.
I’m 38 weeks long and I know exercise is important...but my body wants to relax and chill. Leave me alone with exercise talk...
At 38 weeks, I rolled out of bed at 3:30am with intense pain. I automatically paced out the pain. My son came six hours later. I labored at home for about 3.5 hours.
This was less than 48 hours after losing my mucus plug. My water never broke though, the doctor broke it during childbirth.
Wow! How did you know to stay home for 3.5hrs?
Literally having contractions right as I’m watching this 😭
Briana Beauty Vlogs have you had your baby!? God bless you and your child! I’m due today and have had some mild cramping but I’ve not had any of the other signs. It’s so exciting though! Hope you’re okay Hun Xx
Aisha Atia hi yes, had her at 5:56 pm April 2,2020 crazy pain but great delivery ❤️ good luck! God bless you hope you have a safe delivery
Congratulations!!! 🍾🎉🎈👶🏼❤️ i have six more weeks to go and I get so excited about other mommy’s deliveries 😍 enjoy the hugs and kissies😭🥰
what are the signs that you experienced?
I'm currently balled up cause of the cramps I'm experiencing (I'm 36 weeks)
I had my first baby at the beginning of COVID and learned all I needed for a natural birth from your channel since there was no access to hospital classes back then. Now about to have our second kid and refreshing myself through your videos.
36 weeks and I’m literally thinking I’m in labor every 2-3 minutes 😩
lol I can totally relate! When did you ultimately go in?
Same. 36w, 3d
@@wallacefambam im at 37 weeks also!! Good luck!
Likewise
Im 38 weeks today 😩
Bridget you might not be my personal doula, but every single video you do is such a blessing and it makes me and many others feel so at ease. Thankyou!!!!
I'm on my 39 weeks and gradually feeling the nauseous, loose stools or diarrhea and minor cramps on my back. I'm just waiting for the mucus plug to loose and the leaking of amniotic fluid, and progressing contractions. I really want to see my baby, I'm so excited. 🥰
Your videos have been so educational, helpful and calming during this stressful time. Our hospital is no longer offering tours or classes due to covid-19, so I’ve really been relying on your videos to teach me what I need to know. Thanks for your passion and dedication. It truly does so much good ❤️
37 weeks pregnant with a beautiful, active little boy! I've thought for weeks that he's coming soon and it was giving me anxiety. Now I'm just trying to keep my mind off of it and trust that he'll come when he's ready. Until then, all these signs are getting ME ready for birth 💪
38 weeks pregnant, First time Mumma and feeling nauseous. Just trying to remain calm and this video is very helpful!
35 weeks pregnant, loved being pregnant but I’m ready for this baby to be out! Both ready and nervous for labor 🙃
Same !
YESSSS SO READY. I’m 38 weeks & 2 days!!!! READY. READY. READY!!!!!!
Cece Holmes yess! Good luck! Prayers for a quick and healthy delivery❤️
Princess Wilkins good luck girl! Hope you have a healthy delivery! ❤️
Same !!! Currently 35w and 6 days . I JUST WANT TO MEET MY DAUGHTER ALREADY 😂
40 weeks and 6 days today, waiting for my little man. I’ve been watching your videos during the end of my pregnancy to help aide during my natural birth experience. 💗
How'd it end up going. I ended up letting them talk me into induction at 40 and 6.
38 weeks pregnant. First time pregnant. I dont feel anypain now and I still feel normal. But I'm excited to see my baby soon. I hope my baby will come out soon.
I’m 33 weeks, and this is my first baby. I love your videos they help me keep calm 🥰
I’ve started a channel around my pregnancy, CZcams is amazing for information.
42 weeks pregnant BUT I'm finally in labor! I have been for the past two maybe 3 days but today has picked up intensity and I now know this is it for real. Its my first ever natural labor, I was induced with all my other babies, I have 6, but here real soon to be 7 babies. Its been way more mellow this way, it's a homebirth so I've been at home and enjoying it all.
I was definitely in labor and had my baby not to long after I made this comment. The birth video is on my channel in case you were interested 😊 !!SPOILER ALERT!! Have tissues in hand 😉
No wonder you got induced with all the others, if your natural gestation is this long!! 🙃 That's the boat I'm in... sitting here at 42 weeks waiting for labor 😅 I know from prior experience that I just cook my babies long, but most moms and especially DOCTORS, would not wait patiently for this long!! My first was born just 7lbs at 42 weeks!!
I’m 34 weeks pregnant and I’m starting to feel so crappy and nauseous and I have period pains in my back. I also had one time diarrhea and that was random and bizarre but now I’m seeing that these are early labor symptoms and that makes me feel better that my body is just doing what it is supposed to. Glad I watched this video. Ready for baby boy to come end of June!
Did u end up delivering early ?
40 weeks tomorrow, just trying to wait patiently for my body and baby to do their thing. I just had to say - I LOVE that jacket!
I’m a (fellow currently DONA certified) doula and I love sharing your content with clients! Thank you 🙏
Thank you for this! I’m 37 weeks tomorrow with my second and have had symptoms that keep making me wonder if baby is coming soon but my doc hasn’t really said much about my concerns. First time around my water broke first and I had no other symptoms, not even Braxton hicks and they induced me at the hospital. This time around I’ve had all the things, frequent and often intense Braxton Hicks, period cramping, nausea, decreased appetite and not to mention raging heartburn. It’s been a little frustrating like you said. Thank you for essentially telling to relax and ignore these things and to just focus on water breaking or truly progressing contractions. 👌
40 +3 today, I am starting labor for sure , so happy baby is coming before the schedualed induction 😊
You posted this video at the perfect time! I’m 39.5 weeks... and every little thing has me wondering if I’m about to go into labor! Thank you for all the informational videos you have posted. You took away the fear I had about labor and delivery and replaced it with information and even inspiration. I keep re watching the breathing videos and why pain is important during labor video to keep me motivated. I’ve been recommending your videos to all my pregnant friends as well ❤️ THANK YOU!
Currently at 36 weeks and I’m so happy I came across this channel so helpful
I’m 28 weeks pregnant and I love your videos getting me ready for Labor
I am 38 weeks pregnant and I have menstrual cramp like pain which is so uncomfortable 😰 can’t wait to get real labor started! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love your videos ! Im An l&d nurse and I love how you word/explain certain things and have used this in my practice as well as recommended your videos to friends that are expecting. :)
38 w 2 days, really needed this video since this is my first baby 😭
I had pre labor contractions for 4 days from late evening to early morning. On the 5th day I went into full blown labor at 7pm and delivered at 9:15. My water didn't break until right before crowning. The second (active labor 10min), first child was a 12hr labor (20min active labor) completely different experiences!
Today is my due date, I'm a FTM, and anxiously waiting for little man. Thanks for your video.
When I walked in to labour room telling the nurse that I have been having contractions since past 19 hrs , they refused to believe me initially.
They were expecting me to be wrong because I am first time mom and was too comfortable to be having contractions.One senior nurse even said I am primid so highly likely wrong.
I had nausea and one episode of diarrhea in the beginning.
CTG revealed that my contractions were every 5 mins and os was 3 cm.The nurses were wrong 😂.I delivered within 2 hrs of admission.
Raveena Morthi, Nurses make me so mad because they never listen to patient (or parent of the patient). Just remember you know your body more then them....
I went to ER Monday night with 5 min apart contractions that were just uncomfortable. The staff all thought I was being dramatic and sure enough the monitor showed I was having pretty strong contractions every 5 mins. But I wasn’t dilating or effaced any plus no leaking of fluid. So got sent home and told to come back when my water breaks cause I can’t base my labor off of contractions.
Miranda McCowen Hey Miranda, your comment resonated with what happened to me today :/ just curious what happened after you got sent home? Did you wait to go back once your water broke? Because I’m feeling intense contractions every 5-10mins but was only 1cm dilated and they sent me home. I’m struggling with the pain, and confused because I can’t even have a natural birth to begin with
This happens a lot, I had 2 nurse deliveries because they didnt believe me as well.
@@mirandamccowen5416 omg what????? Only like 14% of women's water even breaks on its own! This is so wild they did this
I'm 38weeks pregnant and I can truly feel that baby boy will come earlier. I really needed this to calm my nerve
Natascha None of your business anything so far??
So glad I found your channel! FTM and 26w+2d. I had complete placenta previa on my 19 week ultrasound and am having another at 28 weeks, hoping so much that the placenta moves and I don’t need a scheduled c-section. I’ve always wanted an unmedicated birth and had been planning on having a low intervention hospital delivery with my midwife since I got pregnant and the placenta previa really messed up my plans.
wow! I am 39 weeks pregnant now , and I had all 4 signs when I was 38 weeks pregnant! It's been a week..
I’ve been turning to your videos since my pregnancy and you’ve been so helpful. Thanks a ton your such a blessing!
Thank you very much, I’m from Mexico City and love your videos. 32 weeks, first baby ❤
Every single video you do is such a blessing
Thank you, Bridget! This is such helpful information.
Love watching these. You are so far the best informative doula and childbirth educator I have watched. Thanks Bridget!
38 weeks and whenever I feel anything im just like "okay THIS is it!" I been saying this for the last 2 weeks LMAO
38 weeks +4 days. Second child. I feel the same. 😂
Congrats to everyone❤️ I am 29 weeks and I am guaranteed to have a early birth and I have to drop out of school cause that isn’t happening any longer can barely do things at home. But just got done painting baby girls nursery now we need to build her crib and do her room I’m so excited for crib to get here. But I’m 15 dad isn’t here but my mom is the best. Been having real contractions because I went in for them but yeah good luck and praying for all of you💗💗💗
41 weeks pregnant with my first baby today and am starting to feel some contractions coming on after all the above symptoms. Will try to take a nap and a bath and relax and hopefully my baby will make his way before induction tomorrow. So excited to just have him in my arms already. Thank you 💙
How did it go??? I’m 36 weeks right now & scared
Hoping everything turned out great for you and your bundle ❤️.
Love your use of language! So much more positive!
I’m 38 weeks +4 days and I’m so excited! Thanks for this video! This is super helpful
38 weeks pregnant and already 3 cm dilated, thank you for your support! I'm having contractions but they're not progressive yet, so I was going crazy analyzing is this it?! Thank you for speaking peace into my life :)
Due in 21 days with my Miracle girl and im praying she comes on her own at 39w 💗🤰
Seriously, you’ve given me more information and education than all of my doctor appointments combined! Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️
34 nearly 35 weeks pregnant here. I'm concerned about my severe lower back pain, period like cramps, and diarrhea over the past 4 days. Luckily I have an appointment with my doctor in less than 48 hours.
Thank you for helping with this video, I’m 38 weeks and this is just perfect timing.
Currently 38 weeks +4 days. So over it 😐 please come now baby girl ! I’m ready!! Bouncing on the ball constantly and doing pelvic circles, really hoping she comes in the next few days
39 weeks 1 day & i feel absolutely fine still 😭
I’m 39 weeks and 3 days pregnant and I feel absolutely fine too😩 I just want him out !🥺❤️

37 weeks pregnnt and cannot wait to see my bby.so tired,excited,ready and nervous also for my 1st bby
I made it to the hospital ready to push this past Monday... obviously I didn’t think it was go time lol.
This is super helpful. I’m 38 weeks and I’m having quite a few different symptoms that keep me questioning if this is the early stage of labor. But I guess it’s all in the contractions lol good to know
Thank you! I’m 28 weeks and was slightly concerned when I lost a little of my mucus plug yesterday but I feel better now :)
Hi..your videos are really inspiring and easy to understand..I'm going to be 32 weeks tommorow and already watching contraction and Labour videos ..Lol 💕💕
40 wks 1 day, today, and I have been experiencing so many pre-labor contractions. So ready to get the show on the road
3rd pregnancy and I’m 38 weeks 🐣 the Braxton Hicks are so real right now
Bridget must say ur videos are best on internet I have seen ... Keep up the good work , bcs knowledge is power in preg, and helps us take informed decision.
39 weeks as of today and having contractions as I’m watching 😅 already 4cm dilated. Think today might be the day!
MARS SQUAD did your baby come yet??? I’m due May 31 but have been having contractions every day off and on but not in labor... just the Braxton Hicks and they vary in intensity... good luck to you!
Christian Coleman hey! My son was born on the 19th and I knew it was time when the contractions intensified and contractions were really close. If they remain the same, spread out and aren’t intensifying then most likely Braxton Hicks/ false labor. Good luck to you girl!
Congratulations for your baby ! Have you been doing anything special to be 4cm dilated at 39weeks ? I am exercising everyday and drinking a lot of raspberry leafs tea but I am 39weeks and 1cm dilated since week 36
Gosh. What a blessing. 4 centimeters!!!
@@thisiswithmarly was there anything in particular that you did to help you get to 4cm before real labor started?
For me with all 3 of my babies (expecting number 4) I had surges, lost mucus plug and bleeding. My water breaks as babies are coming out, hoping we can go 4 for 4 😍💓
I have been feeling nauseous randomly and having weird bathroom issues along with feeling crampy. I am 35 weeks and I'm over analyzing everything!!
I've been having cramps since 35weeks and now I'm 38+2 and still having intense cramps and tightning. Lost my mucus plug three days ago and been expecting my baby girl to finally make her grand entrance. 😔 Been feeling more depressed as days go by with just constant disappointment with these false labors.
39 weeks in 3 days. Might regret saying it, but I can’t waiiitttt for water breaking or real contractions. So excited 😭
This will certainly help me from googling everything every night hahah 38w1d over here and over analyzing EVERYTHING
I love your videos. So helpful!
Thank you. Just what I needed st 38weeks 3 days.
Love your videos. Very informative :)
I’m 37 weeks and 3 days! Thank you for this video. Love your channel! ☺️
My first baby came at 42 weeks. I was so sick of pregnancy I think I tried everything under the son to self induce. Spent the whole time 38 on overanalyzing every symptom. 38 weeks with my 2nd and I've decided to work up until past my delivery date and ignore any and all symptoms unless its glaringly obvious haha
I’m 39 weeks and 4 days, and I’m so worried I’ll experience a symptom & not notice it in time! 😅 So far, nothing. I feel good, I’m nesting obsessively & can’t sit still, and I’m struggling trust my body to get things going in good time. I’m hoping and praying for a natural birth, at home, with a midwife. But more than anything, I just want this baby out so we can finally meet each other! 🥰
39 weeks, 6 days
Contractions every ten minutes since 4 am. Getting stronger too.
The timing of this video was eerily perfect 😂 I'm 36 weeks and yesterday evening I had an intense and painful pressure in my lower belly. It scared the shit out of myself and my husband so we immediately finished organizing the hospital bag just in case hahaha!
It was just a one-time thing and probably just my body preparing, though it was a great reminder to get things ready soon. Woke up to this video today and it was really helpful, thank you so much!!
Me too :o
38 weeks here & I felt the SAME THING a couple days ago! How crazy! I washed ALL of her blankets & newborn-3M clothes 😂 & set up her car seat LOL
I’m 36 weeks and started having contractions ! 20 mins apart. But it was just the baby moving down. No more heart burn ❤️ 🔥!!
I'm currently 37 weeks pregnant. First time mom. At 35 weeks I felt nauseous and had diarrhea. Went to the ER and was already 2cm and was having contractions but thought they were regular Braxton and Hicks. 😂
37w pregnant and want to thank you for the helpful info it helps me so much I am a ftm as well ❤️
3 days apart❤️❤️❤️ all the best
Water broke at 31W on 9/25 currently still in the hospital and watching these videos faithfully 😂 ftm
39 weeks pregnant with third baby and I'm still confused just like it's my first time having a baby

Same and my last baby was 13 yrs ago
Omgggg yesss! All my this is my 3rd and they were all different so I'm super nervous what I feel right now it's all new to me
Same! Every pregnancy is so different 🙈
Same
i’m 34 weeks and i’m praying i don’t bloody get to 40 weeks. Second baby and i’ve hated pregnancy every time and i feel so bad because everyone’s always saying how much they love it but once i hit 30 weeks my body can’t handle it and starts to itch, cramp, ache every night and i’m left surviving on 8-10hrs a week 😅 god help me when this baby comes and i’m running on barely any sleep.
37 weeks tomorrow & with everything going on I’m getting so nervous because I’m still having to work. As much as I’m so excited to meet him! I wish I knew what day he was planning on being his birthday so I could be “ready” lol.
Katie Baker I totally understand! I’m 38 weeks tomorrow and still working too. It’s crazy and uncertain timing for sure! I’m at the point where I’m ready for this bAby to come like now! This is pregnancy number 2 for me how about you?
toni nagle did u give birth
anne macias yes I had my 2nd daughter on Sunday March 29, 20 at 4:54 am through an emergency c section but mommy and baby girl are both home now and healthy. How about you ?
Me too.. Almost 40 weeks, but wish i knew the exact day.. Wanna order a birthday cake for him 😂
Hey Bridget! I am 40wks today and still have no signs of labor. My doctor is talking about doing a membrane sweep at my next appointment Wednesday. I was wondering if you had any thoughts or knowledge about this procedure. I've heard from some people that it hurts, some say it isn't that bad, my doctor also told me there is a possibility of my water breaking when he does the sweep. I really want to have my baby naturally with minimal intervention but I'm also so ready to meet him. I love your chanel 💕 and really value your advice! Thank you!

Very helpful thank you! 💜
I’m 29 weeks and I’ve been losing my mucus plug, been extremely nauseous and have had diarrhea. I also been feeling a pinch by my bladder but my doctors say everything is still good yet.
40 weeks and 3 days preggy, hope to labor asap before 41 weeks i don't want to overdue
I had no signs of labor at 38 weeks the morning I woke up, nested like crazy all day, made dinner for 3 nights and pound cake, started having back pains which felt a lot like the usual ones, then my water broke, i never believed I was in labor I was even scared to go in and get sent away!
Amazing video I love your channel, I'm due in a week, unrelated question where did you get your denim jacket? Its really pretty :3
I have that jacket in green! It’s my favorite! Can’t wait to wear it again when it fits again. 🙂 thanks for your videos. They are so immeasurably helpful!
I like it. Where is it from?
41 weeks and 5 days .. No signs no pain .. Getting a little anxious.. But I know baby will be here soon just patiently waiting 🙏
Im also 41 and 5 days today, have you delivered your little one already? @Genesis C
41 weeks and 5 days for me too today 😮
I'll be 41 weeks tomorrow
@@annebagaslao2639 yes he was born April 29 🥰🥰🥰
I am 37 w pregnant and have been getting cramping/loose stool/nausea for about a week now. But that’s it. I guess the biggest next step will be losing mucus plug and leaking + contractions 😅
Anyways Thank you so much for all your videos every single one is so helpful!!!!
I had my baby 3 months ago. I didn’t have any of these symptoms though I was constantly looking for them! Contractions started at 41 weeks and baby came 3 days later 😁
I'm on my last week! So this has been very helpful, Thank you!
Have you given birth? How did it go
Love your videos!
The challenge for me was not to figure out when labor started but to determine when I should head out to the hospital as I wanted to labor at home as much as possible and avoid interventions in the hospital, one of my babies was almost born in the freeway 😅
Im 37 weeks and labor is definitely coming :o it's the same routine with my last two babies. I poop so much 1/2 weeks before labor and lose parts of my mucus plug 😭 this baby I've been crampy since 20 something weeks since I worked the whole pregnancy and with my other 2 i wasnt active
