Am I in labour?

I'm 38 + 2.

Period pains started Friday morning. Ease up a little with paracetamol which I've constantly been taking but then come back.

Have vomited once severely but no tummy bug symptoms. Eating as normal.

Today the pains are a bit more severe.

Am I in labour? I'm so confused and a bit worried now.

Get some rest, plenty to eat and pack snacks. Oh good luck lovely Brew you will meet your baby very very soon. X

If you pack snacks for your other half, don't put onion or tuna in for him, you do not want that being breathed out near you.

Thanks for you, Bear for baby tea.

Ohhhh sorry Tea that this is not plain sailing!
But it's good too know lovely beautiful healthy baby in your arms real soon!
All the best nice date for a baby 01/12/12!
Def pack easy to eat snacks cause you'll starve in the hospital - mini chedders, peanuts crisps biscuits to build up your sugar levels!

Can I join too please?

Due 11/12 but think I've been having contractions since midnight. Called MW who said sounds like early stages so I'm just trying to wish away the hours until I get to meet my LO!

Oooh how exciting for everyone.

I hope you all are cuddling your little ones right now :D

I have a while to go as 21+5 but makes me pretty glad haven't quite got to the discomfort level you lovely ladies have reached yet. It's just the start of the awkward kicks and frequent bathroom trips :)
