Been having period pains this morning. Last night alot of pressure in my pelvis. It hurts to walk around and Bh are quite bad at times.
I really though I had gone into labor last night. I even dreamt my mucus plug came last night.
Am I in early labor???

That was how mine started. Period pain - gradually increasing in length and intensity. Good luck!

It is very possible that you are in early labour.

Are your timing the BH/contractions? Is there any sort of pattern?

Pregnancy dreams are very weird, aren't they.

That's just how I started in labour - felt EXACTLY like period pains. Started early in the day - got worse and worse as the day went on. Went to hospital at midnight and DS2 was born at 4am.

Good luck!!!!!! Grin

I hope so!!!
Really confused about dream I had. Baby was 3/5 engaged a week ago and I feel like she has shifted down more. My pelvis feels like Ive been kicked down there

That was how labour started for me and I was 3/5 palpable a week beforehand too.

Hi roxy, I've got the same thing - few days of period pains that become like mini-contractions every 5/10 minutes on alternate days.
Midwife said it's normal - either a UTI or latent labour!! Bring it on Grin.
