Prelabour contractions every evening for a week!

Doing my nut now!

Having consistent, regular contractions every evening from about 6pm to 11 ish, then it stops.
DD wakes up at 6 though so I'm starting to get a bit sleep deprived now!

Last night they were every 10-15 minutes so I really got hopeful.

I'm 41 weeks now and this is dc2 - what's the betting dc2 will arrive soon?

I hope it's soon!

I had very painful Braxton Hicks from week 22. Some days, I would contract all day, every 15 minutes for twelve hours!

Oh my, really?

I've had fairly strong BHs from pretty early on - but they've never been regular unless I was walking then they were pretty constant.

Have had back ache all day today. Not in waves, constant...

Oh I am Just So Fed Up!

No contractions tonight! Just lower back pain and "period pain".

Well at least it's a change!

Knackered but can't sleep.... Yes the back pain was the start of labour
