If you've nursed right before labor or in labor, did it make you feel "irritated"? (x=-post)

I just posted this thread this morning, but meant to post a question here as well. I can't tell if my body is starting to "do" things or not, but one thing I've noticed is that I'm getting really physically irritated with DD when she nurses. Not like the "creepy crawly" feeling (I've never experience that), but the "STOP TOUCHING ME!" kind. I've felt this way before, but not when pregnant...actually, it's always been at a certain time in my cycle (around AF and then sometimes before ovulating). I feel like I *might* be close to labor starting for numerous reasons, though there's definitely no telling...but basically I was just curious if it's common to have those irritated feelings while nursing related to the hormones associated with labor? This is the 2nd pregnancy I've nursed through but I don't recall this last time.

Well... I know your progesterone starts dropping right before you go into labor, and your progesterone drops before AF, so I would assume that that could *possibly* be the reason since you have the same feelings like you do at AF. Good luck!
