Been having period pains this morning. Last night alot of pressure in my pelvis. It hurts to walk around and Bh are quite bad at times.
I really though I had gone into labor last night. I even dreamt my mucus plug came last night.
Am I in early labor???

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

That was how mine started. Period pain - gradually increasing in length and intensity. Good luck!

It is very possible that you are in early labour.

Are your timing the BH/contractions? Is there any sort of pattern?

Pregnancy dreams are very weird, aren't they.

That's just how I started in labour - felt EXACTLY like period pains. Started early in the day - got worse and worse as the day went on. Went to hospital at midnight and DS2 was born at 4am.

Good luck!!!!!! Grin

Could well be. How exciting. All the best. x

I hope so!!!
Really confused about dream I had. Baby was 3/5 engaged a week ago and I feel like she has shifted down more. My pelvis feels like Ive been kicked down there

That was how labour started for me and I was 3/5 palpable a week beforehand too.

I am 37 weeks and had experienced on and off bad period pain - but then it's gone again today :(

Hi roxy, I've got the same thing - few days of period pains that become like mini-contractions every 5/10 minutes on alternate days.
Midwife said it's normal - either a UTI or latent labour!! Bring it on Grin.
