Labor sign?
I woke up at 6ish this morning with intense stomach pressure/pains (but low). It really just felt like I had to poop (sorry TMI). I tried and felt very constipated but pain pretty bad. I walked around for a little bit, had some water and pain persists. I had since gone to the bathroom a couple of times (now it's diarrea - sorry TMI). I keep getting the pain every so often and keep running to the bathroom to see if I have to go again - I think I'm done. Anyway, debating whether I should go to work today - is this the start of something or just a stomach issue? Today is supposed to be my last day of work but I'll obviously stay close to home if necessary. I'm just relaxing now - my alarm doesn't even go off for another half hour. Last "gas" pain was 5 minutes ago or so.
Any thoughts? Pain seems way too low to be a contraction.
ETS: Just had another bad "I gotta poop" like pain but nothing.

Re: Labor sign?
that was exactly how it started for me. I kept trying to go..... I took a nice hot shower once the pain got a little more intense. It was a great relief.\ Good Luck!

Re: Labor sign?
These definitely could be signs of labor but they can last for awhile. I would take the day as how you feel. I gave birth on my last day of work so things don't always work out the way you plan.

Re: Labor sign?
it could be. The body "cleanses" it self before going into labor for some women.

Re: Labor sign?
That can definitely be the start of labor. I was induced and having more traditional contractions but as soon as I told the nurse I felt like I had to poop but couldn't go, she told me I was in labor!! Good Luck!!!!!
