Mother's intuition?

Does anyone believe in this or had it happen to you during pregnancy and you were right?  I am just curious if I am being paranoid or if I just know.... I feel like I am going to go into labor and have this baby soon. Which is not exactly what I want as I am only 34 weeks.  I can't explain why I feel like this I just do.  I have been having contractions since 2 weeks ago 10 minutes apart and I have A LOT of pelvic pressure and have had diarrhea for the past 4 days.  Anyone else have a similar experience. I know there is really no proven way to tell if I am going into labor soon or not.

I'm 34 weeks and have been contracting for a month or so. They checked me and I'm at and 2. The Dr wants the baby to wait but I don't know how to get my body to wait. I just lay down a lot and try not to do anything. I find that to be hard with 2 boys and a husband who wants my attention all day.

Yeah its weird I have this gut feeling I will go before my scheduled c section in 2 wks...my dr on vacation for another four days so need to at least hold off for then. I think its bc I get freq braxton hicks which I didnt get at all with my first pregnancy...so never know if they going to turn into the real thing....

Yeah I am getting ready for sure!  I just hope my body can hang in there at least 3 more weeks! I don't really want her here any sooner than 37 weeks no matter how miserable I am

Your body is definitely preparing for labor!  If your contractions get worse and become frequent i would definitely call your doc!
