I am on my 4th so I should know the answer to this myself. However, I really dont think I had B/H with any of my girls.
The reason I ask is this,
I have been on my hands and knees this morning scrubbing my rather large dining room floor. Now since about lunch time I have been getting regular (ish), say every 6 or 8 mins (haven't really timed properly)
tightnings, quite low down on my bump and they are quite painful (had to breath through the last few) Also accompanied by a pressure feeling down below.
I hestitate to say I am in labour as firstly I am only 37+2 and secondly , my first 2 girls were born in 4 and 2 hours (but I did wake having intense contractions at night). My third girl was induced and she was 1 hr 50 mins.
I am so not used to b/h but am starting to feeel that maybe something could be happening.
