What were your early/pre labour signs?

Currently pregnant with my 2nd. The last 2 days I have had lower stomach cramps (all day like period cramps) and lower back pain. I have also lost a few small chunks of my mucus plug. Oh and looser/more frequent bowel movements. Currently 39+1. My last pregnancy I was induced at 41 weeks, never had any braxtion hicks or pain and only lost a small amount of my mucus plug after 40 weeks. So hoping these are good signs I may go into labour soon 🤞
