Labour?
I’m 38+1 with my second baby. This morning I’ve woke up and I’ve got dull period like pains really low, I can feel baby is super low as well. I’ve got really bad backache, feel really nauseous and also feel very hot.
I was induced with my first so not really sure what spontaneous labour feels like. I have a midwife appointment at 11:50am so trying to hold out till that to mention to her but just wondering if anyone has any advice what these symptoms may be, could it be early labour or just late pregnancy?

I’ve had this on and off and 100% just late pregnancy symptoms!
Had my midwife appointment and she said baby is so so low so it could be the start but only time will tell x
Also make sure you’re hydrated
Drink a ton of water! It helps avoid Braxton hicks! Also early on-site of labour feels like a period at first... and then it starts to get more rhythm after a few hours to where your cramps are now contractions happening closer and longer together.
I have the exact same when i went to my midwife appointment she said it’s all normal and be ready if you feel you are in labour call the hospital (triage)

I was feeling the same from 4:00 am to 5:30 am this morning and last night had some cramps and back pain at 7:00 pm and was wondering the same, if it means early labor… But I feel fine now, just back pain, I am 37 weeks and 4 days.
