I’m 39 weeks with baby number 4 and I am very physically uncomfortable. Cramping, muscle pains, back ache. She is definitely head down and settled very low in the pelvis. Have had occasional practice contractions every so often for the last three days. But nothing that feels like the real deal.
I haven’t had this kind of false start in any previous labours, but each one of my labours has been very different to the others I suppose.
How can I relax a bit more and stop feeling anxious at every little twinge? And when is this baby going to get here?
