Early Labour?

[frillylemons]

Hi all!

This is my first pregnancy and I am wondering if I could be in early labour.

I've had strong BH all weekend along with the odd period-type cramp. When I woke up this morning, I was greeted with BH and cramps. As soon as I got up, I noticed a sharp pain either side of my lower bump, almost like a stitch but deeper. TMI, but I have been rather windy and feel 'loose'!!

Could those sharp pains possibly be something or nothing? I thought I was going in to labour on Friday night but it stopped! I really want it to get moving now though!

Tbh they could be something or nothing, useless to hear but true! Lol

Every labour is different, but I do very much believe when a midwife says 'you'll know when it's real labour' it's absolutely true.

For now I'd recommend not worrying if it labour or not (hard to do I know) and focus on keeping yourself active and as comfy as you can. You will soon know when it's happening! Good luck!

Ooo, I've had things like this for a few days now and I'm really hoping its the signs of early labour. I'm ready to get this giant out asap (37 weeks but shes already 7 half lbs and I'm only little)
