Is it false labour??

[Twinny25]

I’m 40+4 as a ftm- yesterday I had slightly painful tightenings all day accompanied with back pain and in the night a really bad constant period pain that went away when I woke up.

Today I’ve had no symptoms all day- no Braxton hicks, no tightenings, no backache and im just frustrated 🫠
i dont think ive lost my plug yet and my water hasn’t broken either. What can i do to move the process along!!
we’ve tried all the home inducing methods

Have you felt any leaking? When I went into slow labour I had the pains described then the next day nothing but when I went in to get checked I was about 2cm it could also be a uti maybe phone the maternity unit just to make sure everything’s okay

No leaking at all, I had a phase of more discharge but even that’s stopped now too

I’d maybe phone to see if you can get checked out some people don’t even noticed they lost their plug especially with how far a long you are aswell they may just induce you

First time Mum, you are barely over due. Relax. I know, easier said than done.

I had irregular on and off contractions at 41 weeks for 3 nights before I gave birth. It was so frustrating thinking things were starting and then going nowhere but it was all worth it in the end. I got so fed up I begged for an induction and they put me on the list but I ended up going into labour spontaneously and having the exact birth I wanted - hang in there!
