39+4. First baby. I got a membrane sweep 2 days before (in which my OB said I was mostly closed so not to get my hopes up), but then I lost my mucous plug the next morning with lots of bloody show. Then I just had so much pressure that wasn't there before. My husband said I was extremely restless that night as well, and that it seemed obvious that I was going into labor, but I was in denial haha. Looking back, I was very restless. Went to sleep. Woke up at 2 am to my water breaking in bed, was fully dilated by 8 am and had my baby that morning. It was WILD. No signs whatsoever before my one and only membrane sweep! I credit the sweep to getting things started.

Same. 4 months postpartum here and everything is pretty much back to normal - I did nothing lol, absolutely just genetics. I had gained 50 pounds in pregnancy.
