What were your pre-labor symptoms? What was different in the days before you went into..

...labor? I'm only 36 weeks with #2, but I never experienced going into natural labor with my first as I had to be induced. In the past month or so I've noticed a lot of changes in my body which are all to be expected. However, in the last week I've had stronger Braxton Hicks contractions (sometimes lasting for hours and become somewhat painful), I've had an increase in colostrum leaking out, my breasts seem even fuller (they feel like they did after I had my first and I was breastfeeding, really firm), and I've had an increase in vaginal pressure. In the past three days I've also had more and more diarrhea.

I have a doctor's appointment in the morning and will bring all this up, but I would love to hear from other women what changes their bodies went through in the weeks leading up to labor. Thank you!
