Hi all!
Ok, so today I am 39 weeks + 1.
On Thursday night I had pains in my tummy, cramping but above my belly button. It felt similar to when I've had sicky bugs before. It seemed retry constant but with some 'peaks'. Had completely stopped by 5am on the Friday.
1pm on the Friday it started again. As I was with friends it was slightly easier to try and ignore it but I found myself zoned out of what we were talking about most of the time. By 11pm it had completely stopped.
Then 4:40am this morning it started again and is still aching.
I've also had lower back pain and this morning I vomited.
I feel like such a wimp. I'm a first timer but even I know it's gonna get a lot worse, which scares the crap out of me! I've spoken to the midwife who says its my body getting ready.
Don't know what I hope to achieve on this thread. Did you experience similar things before labour? And how long did you experience it for? What I'd really like is someone to say, 'oh, you'll have your baby in x amount of time!' Any psychics out there?!?!?!?
