40 weeks pregnant signs : My last period started on February 14th, 2008 and I have not had it since. I did spot about 2 weeks ago, I have had 3 neg urine pregnancy tests, one of which was at the dr.'s office.

40 weeks pregnant signs : I am 40 weeks pregnant, and today I've been having some pretty uncomfortable contractions, they started to get more frequent in the early evening. How do I know when I'm in labor? Because whats happening is that my uterus is hardening up and it hurts so bad that I need to squeeze my husbands hand, and sit still for about 1 min or so. And today I've been leaking milk from my breasts, more than I've ever leaked before. Is that a sign that I am going to be going into labor soon? Do I need to be i

40 weeks pregnant signs : When I told my doctor my last period they gave me a due date that sounded a little off on my calculations but I didn't question it because she is the doctor. Even my first and second ultrasound showed that I was right but I still didn't think about it because I have heard those can be wrong. Well I am 39.6 weeks pregnant and NO sign of labor....She has ordered me to do a non stress test one day after my "due date" and without the results has scheduled my induction 40.5 weeks. I don't understan

40 weeks pregnant signs : At 35 weeks pregnant I have began experiencing Braxton Hicks contractions (I never felt them b4) and significantly increased baby movement in my lower abdomen for 2-3 days. Could this be a sign of impending labor or just the regular process as you get closer to 40 weeks? I havent passed any sign of my mucus plug and now the BH which were strong for a couple days are/haved decreas(ed)ing in frequency and intensity. My baby movement is normal. I'm totally confused about what was happening or

40 weeks pregnant signs : Im so dissapointed. Im due tomorrow and im not even having any signs of labor- we just want to meet our little boy.My midwife said im 70% effaced and 2 cm dilated and that my cervix is REALLY soft and she said i will probably have a short labor because of how soft my cervix is and everything. But I havent lost my mucous plug. My midwife doesnt do inductions until 42 weeks... and im really dissapointed that I may have two more weeks of this left. My midwife said that we are more than welcome to

40 weeks pregnant signs : Hiya Im 40 weeks and 2 days pregnant today with my first baby. Last night and also this morning I have been getting the occasional twinge/pain roughly in the area where my cervix is. Does anyone know what this could be? It's different to Braxton Hicks as I have been getting those occasionally for about a month now. When I get these twinges my abdomen doesn't go hard or anything so I dont think its contractions (or is it?) Do you think this could be my cervix dialating?? Has anyone else ha

40 weeks pregnant signs : I know that fetal movement is a good sign, but every day for the last 5 days or so my baby has been having bouts of intense activity. In fact, she is most definitely moving more now than throughout the entire pregnancy, even though the movements are supposed to slow down at this time. It seems funny worrying because I'm so used to doing kick counts to make sure she's moving enough, now it's so much that it's almost annoying! I am 1cm dilated/80%effaced/engaged. I do, in fact, mean INCREAS

40 weeks pregnant signs : Could this be sign of labor? I had this before i went to the hospital but they said it was normal discharge

40 weeks pregnant signs : I JUST lost my mucus plug (no blood though)! I am wondering 1) if that means I am even more dilated and effaced than before? (last time doc checked I was 1 1/2cm and 50%effaced and baby is engaged... but this was a week and a half ago...) 2) did anyone have labor start soon or even though I am past due I could still have awhile?? (I'm going to work tomorrow and just wanna know the "chances" of labor...) I know there is no sure fire way to know... but every sign labor is approaching is s
