I've had a lot of minor shows and stop start pains in the last two weeks so am worried I have become complacent.
40 + 2 with second child. I felt good today compared to other days, not very uncomfy and more energy. I made a big spag Bol for dinner and during it developed a killer backache. Since then I have had sharp pains in cervix area, minor show and lots of BH. I went to sleep about 11-ish then woke up at 1. 30 am to the strangest feeling as though I had been booted in the vagina area. since then I have had waves of quite sharp intense pain radiating from cervix area up and around my back. Lasting about 40 secs, approx nine mins apart.
Are these contractions? They feel nothing like last time although I was induced and the pain was all in my back. They are not how I envisaged at all.
What do I do? I am 45 mins away from hospital, need to wake up family and drop dd off at Grans house. When do I go in? Scared about waking everyone up for a false alarm.
Shitting myself as this will be a Vbac.
