Contractions started about half one..but straight away were around five mins apart.... currently strapped up to tens and they're coming 4-6 mins apart lasting around 45secs..... what do I do?! No way can sleep through these...

Had sweep today hence wondering if could be false labour

Sounds like labour to me :) how about a film for a while

Assuming you're not planning a home-birth, have you called the hospital? Your contractions are 5 mins apart. How are you finding it? Hope you're not alone

Thank you! 14 hours of labour, a lot of unearthly noise and a pool delivery. Still don't know how to process what's just happened!
