Without wanting to get too excited I think things maybe happening? Am 37 plus 3 and since about 3PM this afternoon I have had mild back ache and period type uncomfortable pains and keep getting them intermittently every half hour or So. Just some niggles but I am hoping things are moving along!! this morning I have had an energy burst done all washing and housework and some work. Just cone out of the bath and was making some cheese and crackers and had another good twinge.
All my other babies have been late but always had a feeling this one may come early.
Fingers crossed hey! Will update later with hopefully some labour news.
Although it could just be wishful thinking and baby will prob be late lol.
Keeping positive though!!

Will do. A few more niggles so far and sorry for tmi but been on the toilet a fair bit too. Could it be a clear out?! Hoping so either it's beginning of it all or a case of the poohs Blush

This could go either way. And don't worry. When it comes to birthing there is no such thing as tmi. Grin

Ps the energy burst means I would put money on this being it. I have lived in this house 5 years and the one and only time I have cleaned the patio door windows from top to toe was the night before I had DS 2.
