Is this normal behavior before going into labor?

Question

I am due August 27th. I have a couple hours of contractions in the middle of the night for the past week but nothing more than that. I am very restless; can't sleep. All I want to do is eat and tackle small projects I haven't had a chance to do in months. How did you act before you went into labor? I am hoping I don't go way past my duedate.

Answer 1

What your doing is called 'nesting'  it usually means that labor is coming but not a clear indication as to when.  good luck!

Answer 2

I hate to tell you this but this has been what I've been doing for the past two weeks - alas no labor.

Due Sept 1.

Answer 3

your supposed to get a sudden burst of energy about a week before going into labor i didnt but my friend did  

Answer 4

well if you are having contractions and you water has broke than you should go to the hospital now, it also depends how you had s*x was it comfortable? if it wasnt than thats wierd but if it was than it explains why you are in pain how recently have you taken the p***s out? it all depends on that

Answer 5

it sound like your nesting which can happen weeks before your do with my first daughter i was in the nesting stage a month before she was born and with this pregnancy it was 2 weeks ago but i'm not due till the 22nd.

as for the restlessness and contractions i've been like that for about 2 weeks just moniter the contractions to make sure thier real and not fake.
