Im writing this from antenatal ward. i am 39 wks and yesterday had dramatic and very scary bleed, got to.hospital where they thought it could be bloody waters but examination showed membrane intact so they just don't know.

been having irregular but painful contractions that are slowing down, so frustrating! been walking/bouncing on ball as much as poss but feeling shattered after hardly any sleep.

just so fed up now-anyone been in similar situation or any advice to get labour going? midwives keep suggesting it could still take days but not allowed home as still bleeding.

not the serene home waterbirth i had planned!

Been there, I hope it goes well, try not to get stressed, distract yourself,

are you allowed to walk up and down stairs ?

I hope someone is bringing you lots of lovely food, order a pizza if not.
