Weird signs labor is near
How to know if your dilating without checking...
As ever with pregnancy, though, there are no fixed rules. "Every pregnant woman experiences these pre-labour signs differently," says midwife and midwifery advocate Liz Halliday of the Resolution Clinic.
"Some will have several signs or one strong sign; others will have no signs at all."
These signs can broadly be divided into physical signs (something happening in your body), emotional signs (something affecting your thoughts and feelings) and other more anecdotal signs (something that women who've been through labour, or supported others going through labour, have noticed commonly happens).
Of these, it's only the physical ones that scientists would acknowledge as "official" signs of pre-labour.
The emotional ones, though frequently commented on by midwives, would be classed as more observational than scientific, and it's probably fair to say that the other signs mostly belong in the old wives' tales category – fascinating but with little reliable evidence behind them.
