I'm just wondering if anyone else's toddlers started acting strange right before you went into labour? For the last couple of days my 20 month old has been super clingy and will not let me out of his sight, whereas usually he is quite happy to play with other kids at playgroup, and let me just rest on the couch while he plays with his cars on the floor etc, also will not let his dad put him to bed or help him with anything whereas usually he is a real daddy's boy and I'm the one who doesn't get a look in. Also, the last two days I have been on a cleaning frenzy (literally it drives me insane if I see one piece of dirt on the floor and I have to clean it straight away) and today I feel a bit off. I'm not having contractions and haven't broken waters or had my show, but just feel different in my stomach area, kind of tight, a little bit crampy (sorry it's really hard to explain). I was induced with my son much earlier than this so I have no idea what to expect and what signs I should be looking for. I'm just wondering if this is early early signs that labour is coming, or just wishful thinking on my behalf lol.

I do believe that there are signs that you could be going into labour. it's weird how the female body works and how it can tell itself it's nearly time. Im usually a messy person but a few days before i gave birth i went on a cleaning frenzy!! I don't know so much about your son been able to have some kind of sixth sense that babies coming, maybe he's just picking up on your mood and your change of behaviour or it could be as simple as he's heard people say to you "oh baby will be here soon" etc. But you never know...I have heard animals can tell! How exciting :)
