Labour starting?
I’m 38+2 and I’ve had dull aches in my lower back / sides since yesterday and today have had period like cramps throughout the day, also toilet for 💩, I have a lot of pressure and sometimes when she moves it feels like a water balloon is going to pop inside me. I was 3/5 engaged few weeks ago at last midwife appt.
I was induced with my first and never experienced any symptoms, he was also breech. Could this mean labour is close? 🤞🏼

I’ve been like this for over a week I’m now 37+3😟 my first cramping back and front started 35 weeks xx
The symptoms indicate the first stages of labour - which can last a few days, before waters break, mucus plug goes & contractions start etc. I’d definitely give triage a call though so they can advise 🫶🏻 How excitingggg! 🥳
I’ve woke up feeling sick and dizzy 🤢 x
i’ve had these for what feels like a solid week now & no progress but midwife says it’s usually the body getting ready, i’m 39+2 now just ready & waiting!

i don’t really have any ideas as my only sign of labour starting were my waters breaking, maybe see how things progress and keep an eye out for any fluid leaking or mucus plug coming away
