Panicking a little
(27 Posts)In 34 weeks and I've been up all night weeing ! I've got period type pains, sore bump and pressure in my bum. Does that sound normal? The cramping is every 6 mins or so and at the front
That sounds suspicious...I'd definitely be giving your midwife a call
It eases off I'm hoping it's Braxton hicks. My bump hasn't dropped and I've had no mucus plug loss and no back pain
I would call the midwife too.
I've left a message on their answer machine
Sounds like your body practicing 😀 you will know if it's contractions.
Phoned them they said it sounds like Braxton hicks
If I'm finding these painful I don't think I'll do well in labour
You'll be fine. Everyone says that lol.. I always think the pain was worth it in the end xx
OP please dont worry yourself about labour, when I was pregnant with my son, I found BH way more painful than the real thing.
They were not braxtons they were labour
Oh, congratulations! Have you had the baby then or still in labour?
I was just about to say I'd definitely go and make them see you because it sounds like labour and then I read your last message! Congratulations! Is all well?
Got to hospital at 15.15 8cm dilated boy born at 18.18 he's ok in an incubator xx
Must all be a bit of a shock OP given that you thought you had quite a few weeks to go. How is baby getting on?
Cross post. Glad to hear baby is doing well, look after yourself.
Congratulations! Glad he's doing ok Well no wonder you found them painful! If you get a chance I'd be curious to hear at what point you realised it was really labour?
When I got to thr hospital rose honestly I was 8cm and didn't know!
Sounds like you did a lot better with the pain of labour than you though you would xx i was crying my eyes out when i was 2cm dialated
Congratulations x
Well done and congrats. I’d be really miffed they didn’t take you more seriously but you did amazing.
It sounds like you did amazing. Not many women can post when in labour! I'm glad he's doing okay. I know this isn't what you had planned but things will work out, and you have a tiny little early eager beaver to look forward to taking home for cuddles!!
Ooh well done OP x
Glad he and you are doing well x x
Amazing! Have you told your midwife it wasn't braxton hicks?
You were right to be concerned about the pain level then. Well done x
Yep trust instincts ladies. I'm awaiting a review from medical team to find out what happened but he seems ok. Out of incubator and passed hearing test x
Congrats on your baby boy! Well done on getting through most of labour without realising
Hope you both go home soon. Keep us updated
