It’s natural to be worried about missing the early signs of labor. How will you know when it’s time to grab your hospital bag and get to the delivery room? Look for these signs of imminent labor:- Blood-tinged discharge
- Expulsion of the mucus plug
- Rupturing of the amniotic sac (a.k.a. water breaking)
- Nesting instinct
- Regular contractions
Don’t spend too much time analyzing, though – if you think you’re in the early stages of labor, pick up the phone and call your doctor.
