Hi Ladies

It has been 22 years since my last pregnancy, and I'm a bit rusty! My daughter in law is 39 + 4, and has been having back pain since 11 this morning. She says that her belly feels hard all the time, not on/off like Braxton Hicks. I can't remember whether this constant tightness is normal or not. Help!!

Oooh, exciting.

Can't say anything for sure of course but it reminds me of my first labour with an OP baby. Not a problem but it can be a bit different from usual.

I'm 400 hundred miles away, and I know I'm panicking ....! This is our first grandchild, and I'm sure I wasn't this nervous when we were having our own!!

LOL, what are you panicking about though?

TBH, it's lovely that your DIL has told you this. Most want to keep their labour a secret from the MILs.

:) You're right. There really is nothing to panic about, its just me. Yes, she is lovely. We're very lucky.
