I have had mental BHs today, seriously strong ones. No period pain similarity though so I am fairly sure this isn't "it". (mind you, I haven't had period pain for about three years, since I started using a mooncup, thank you MN, so my recollection of the difference between BH and latent phase labour is now exactly four years old...!!)
I did day one of my intensive five day training course today. (Managing Successful Programmes). The course leader asked when I was due, I said I'm at 36 weeks tmrw, she said ooh my second was born at 36 weeks :) ... To which I thought that's not bloody funny but then (anyone anxious don't read this) she explained she'd had awful stomach pains which her GP poohpoohed as "a gastric bug, go home and keep your fluids up", and she ended up blue-lighted into hosp, they estimated she was 15 mins from fatal, c-sectioned the baby out (I think a vertical cut too) and only then discovered her burst appendix, which they whipped out at the same time.
So I said, well, do I get a refund or a rebooking if I go into labour in the middle of the course? only half joking but she couldn't say anyway, these courses are delivered through so many levels of outsourcing.
I think it's definitely good going that we've got to the end of this thread/end of July without any too-early babies, well done the two ladies with a bit of a scare last week!! Clever you, keeping them in and safe. Keep resting.
Must sleep now - course is 9am-5pm, 50 mins commute each way and 2 hrs homework each night. I did practice tests this evening, 57/75 for the first but 5/10 for the second (is done in a bit of a tricky format, you need to get lots of sub-questions right to get the mark). Need my rest to do my best...
