I am well overdue. Now 40+15. However, for thes last day I've been getting strong pains across the bottom of the bump, which feel like seriously strong period pains, and then move into my back.
I had to go in to the hospital yesterday for monitoring because of being so overdue and refusing induction, and the mw said the pains are nothing, just aggrevation from the sweep they did. Only, it does feel crampy and VERY painful.
What are these pains?? Is it possibly the beginnings of warm up for labour or is that wishful thinking on my part? The mw was one of those who just doesn't listen to you. I know these aren't proper contractions, I just need to know what's happening, and whether this could be a sign that things are FINALLY getting moving?
So desperate and so fed up now.
