I'm 36 weeks. I've been getting pre-labour signs and symptoms for 1-2 weeks and they are increasing: increased brown coloured discharge, cramps, back ache. I know this can go on for weeks before proper labour happens.
I have an elective section booked at 39 weeks due to previous EMCS. The baby is currently breech.
At what point do you attend hospital if you don't reach the planned section date? Do you go when you're in proper labour or sooner (because the signs and symptoms of pre-labour can last for weeks)? It all seems a bit urgent if you wait until proper labour but on the other hand, these symptoms can last until the planned date??
Does that make any sense? The ramblings of a mad woman!
My DS was prem and EMCS so I am feeling over anxious about this.
