You can use navigation guard to get the previous route and do your check.
In your parent component you can add this:
beforeRouteEnter (to, from, next) {
// here you can save to and check it in mounted for instance
// call next and pass a callback to access the component when it is ready
next(parentComp => {
parentComp.navigatedFrom = from
})
},
And then you can access navigatedFrom
from inside your parent component.
