Ok so im 39+3 weeks and since last Wednesday I've been getting period type pains low down just under my bump on and off, they have been getting stronger and stronger but arnt following any pattern, midwife just told me to take paracetamol for it but said babys head is engaged. Its starting to wake me up during the night but haven't had any other signs. I'm so fed up already and want this baby out anyone else experienced this before baby came?

no, they can be pretty painful!

Labour pains are regular, if Braxton Hicks are very painful, it is worth getting yourself checked for a UTI
