I'm 40+1 with my first, had a midwife appointment this morning and she said I'm mostly engaged now, so she did an examination and a sweep, I lost my plug earlier this week.
This evening I've had Braxton Hicks but unlike before they are quite painful now. Twice in the last hour, they've not been agony, but enough to make me catch my breath.
I've also got back pain, which I'm told is a good sign that things are happening.
I feel silly not knowing, everyone just keeps telling me 'oh you'll know when your in labour' but can anyone with experience give me a clue - could this be kick off!?
