Reoccuring labor pains.

Well ladies, it's fixin to be monday which is my 38th week marker! wOOt!!
I keep getting labor pains but they never stick around for very long.

This is my second child, I never went into labor on my own with her I was induced and ended up having to get an emergency c-section cuz my daughter was too big and wouldn't engage.

I remember what the contractions felt like when I was in labor, before I got an epidural, but because I was induced and it was just like BAM! Labor! - I really dunna what to expect if I were to go in on my own.

Off n on for the past like, 2 er 3 days, I get sometimes quite painful contractions but they're very irregular, some hurt more than others, some feel like BH Contractions-
They'll usually stick around for an hour to up to 2 er 3 hours then stop just as fast as they came on.
They happen more at night though.

I've been having LOADS of vaginal discharge, and some of it looks like could be my mucus plug, but most of it is probably from my yeast infection I got from being on 2 coarses of antibiotics at the end of October.
I'm treating it and some of it is probably that stupid cream coming back out too.

They deff gatta be labor related because they get so strong where I can't hardly breathe, I can't walk upright, it hurts in my low low back right above my butt, and I pretty much can barely function while I'm in the middle of it.
I've been very very crampy aswell. Sometimes they get like my menstral cramps on my worse day of my period.

Is this a warning sign that I could possibly be going soon?
I feel bad cuz I wanna hurry up n go into labor on my own cuz I have 1 more week till my 20th birthday and then I get the knife.
My mother will be here Friday the 13th and I really want her to be there for the birth of this baby cuz she wasn't able to be there for my last one. [[I live in Texas with my hubby and she lives back where I'm originally from in Massachusetts.]]

I'm hoping that I could miraculously go into labor like that night after she gets here so I can hopefully skip out on the c-section!! lmao
