What is the feeling right before your water broke or before you know you're abt to deliver?

I'm so worried. Most of the time I'm on my own. I'm either wfh alone or alone in my office or commuting on my own. Can experienced natural birth mummies share what I tell-tale signs right before you admit to hospital? Other than SHOW & water bag break. Bcos I've been feeling like my fetus is laying really low recently. I'm 37 weeks.

It really varies. I didn’t lose my mucus plug (maybe I did but I didn’t have any bloody show nor thick mucus) nor did my water bag break even at week 40 (overdue and induced). I was admitted for low fluid and the nurses had to manually break my waterbag. I think if you feel that your contractions are more frequent and longer, then better call up your hospital and they will advise you accordingly. Don’t wait till it gets very intense that you don’t even have the time to go hospital.
