I had show first (blood stained mucus discharge) for my second pregnancy. In fact, contractions started days after. For my first pregnancy, I had leaking liquor first (clear fluid from water bag), initially one or two spots, subsequently trickling, then contractions came and the whole bag burst.
Contraction for me was a very painful abdominal cramps that i can’t move my legs, and felt like my private part would fall off.. this feeling on off with like 5- 10mins interval. After the pain was gone I felt that I can’t control peeing little did we knew my water bag broke already 😁
I started getting pink discharge daily a few days before I delivered (my bloody show did not come all at once). I also had contractions that came only at night those few days before I delivered, and on the day before delivery those night time contractions extended into the daytime.
No signs at all before contraction for me. I was at 40 weeks already by then, and was wondering when it will start. Well, the contractions came when i was about to sleep that very night. Didnt feel anything like it before during my pregnancy.
Didn’t get to experience contractions for my 2nd one (gave birth in June this year). For my first one, there were no contractions at all until 3 hours after my waters broke - felt like the longest 1 hour of my life before I finally pushed.
I have no symptoms before contractions. I know my baby is ready to see the world when my water bag burst. Contractions came much later
