I'm 41 + 4 and have an induction booked for later this week.
Yesterday I had an upset tummy and starting feeling what I thought were contractions (shooting pains/cramps in my lower belly) every three minutes lasting up to a minute a time (I also had a bloody show followed by brown discharge).
I went into triage and was told my cervix was closed and was sent home.
The contractions completely stopped and when I phoned the hospital they told me not to worry.
Has anyone been through anything similar? When do I actually go back into hospital if the contractions re-start?
