Contractions ?

possibly, try and get some sleep now whilst you can, they might start intensifying overnight! good luck 🤞🏼 xxx

@Hannah thank you so much x

I’ve been having the same I’m 41+1 and I have back ache when they are happening too!

@Didi yes this is the same as me, I’ve been having it pretty much all night and I’ve been in and out of sleep but nothing else has happened xx

I've been having pains for weeks but they have been getting worse. I'm having on and off contractions I can have an hour of regular ones 1-2 within every10 mins then nothing for a while. I had a sweep on Thursday and I was 2cm and lost bits of my plug since then. I've got loads of pressure in my bum and keep thinking ohh this is it but no! I've got another sweep today so will see but this baby is clearly comfortable 😅xx

@Ashleigh that’s exactly the same as me, always second guessing with when it’s going to happen, the pain for me has been consistent all through out the night and still now but not really developing or getting worse xxx

I think it's just false start labour 🙈 hopefully it will become very clear when labour is definitely starting. I'm getting induced on Thursday if I haven't gone naturally but really hope it does by then. This is my second and with my 1st I was induced too so don't really fully know what to expect from a natural labour xx

@Ashleigh yeah your the same as me I was induced with my first so never experience this so now it being my second and all this is happening I just don’t have a clue 🤯 Hope everything works out for you though and it all goes okay xxx

Ahh i know how you feel Thank you, you too xx

I’m also the same, been getting period pains for over a week now and when I time them they are regular but they never pick up or intensify although these period pains definitely hurt more than a week ago. I’ll be 41 weeks tomorrow so have a c section booked in. I keep hoping it will happen on its own but I was induced at 42 weeks last time and I feel like my body just can’t do it on its own

Had to go into hospital today, lost my mucus plug and now in early labor contractions are every 10 minutes lasting around a minute currently, everything ready to go just a waiting game for me xxx

I’m in the same boat right now I lost mine at 4am and contractions with bad back ache around every 7 mins! I’m finding it super uncomfortable when baby is moving too!

I’m in every 6 minutes now too, I’m finding it proper uncomfortable as well just waiting for the right time to go to the hospital, hope your ok x

They told me just now when I phoned the maternity assessment unit that I have to wait until they are every 3 minutes lasting a minute long for an hour 😩

@Didi that’s exactly what they said to me as well, I expected it to be quicker than that but find the pain unbearable xx
