Hi all, wondering if anyone can help? I'm 39 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child and I have been having irregular pains across the middle of my stomach near my belly button for 2 days now. They came down to every 4 mins at one point then all of a sudden stopped, this started on Saturday night then stopped, then last night then stopped and again tonight. It's always in the evening. My baby is back to back and I have read that they can be slow labours. I've had no show and my waters haven't broke yet. I'm so confused!

This sounds like the start of my labour, I was in the latent stage for 5 days before contractions became more regular. Midwife broke my waters in the end. Check the childbirth talk board.
