Have any of you ever had a moment, before you went into labor that you just *knew* it was coming soon??? Were you right?

I vividly remember telling a friend of mine that my baby was coming the next day. I hadn't had any labor symptoms at all, I was a first time mom, and the next day was my due date. She laughed because she didn't believe me. I went into labor at 2pm the next day, and Mylo was born at 6:56 pm. I just knew he was coming.

No... but my sister went to work on Wednesday and told all of her co-workers that she'd be late the next day because I was going to have a c-section Thursday evening. This was totally crazy because it was an emergency cesearian, totally unplanned, but somehow she knew that it was going to happen.

DP and I were driving along and I looked up at the moon and told him "I'm going to have this baby by the full moon."

And guess what.. I did. That was Saturday when I said that. It was Thursday before 2 am when I had DS.

Well, I "knew" when my ds was going to be born. I knew very early on in my pregnancy. Everyone finally believed me when it did happen. I also think that most people were a little taken aback.
I also knew years and years before he was even conceived that he would be a boy. I had had a dream about him, and when I woke up, I could still feel him in my arms. They ached just to touch him again...what a relief when I was finally able to truly hold him.
And one more little tidbit, I was also given his name in a dream.
I was really in tune with that pregnancy.
I'm hoping that this one will be similar.

I remember the week that my son was born I noticed that there would be a full moon on Sunday and I suddenly just knew he would be born then. Sure enough he was. I wasn't having any kind of contractions, nothing that would tell me his birth was close. He was born two days before my due date. I keep wondering if I'm going to have any intuition about when the little guy I'm carrying right now is going to arrive. I've got about 4 weeks left and I'm feeling very strongly that I need to have everything ready, but that's about it!

The day before and as I was going to bed the night before my water broke (but I'd had no contractions to really speak of), I had an eery feeling that something would happen, but I couldn't place it. It broke when I got up to pee for the first time at 2am... but I didn't go into labour on my own (I bought into the 24 hour "rule" then, and went straight to the hospital for induction ). Don't know if that counts cause in the end it was the doctor who decided when I'd deliver...
