4th pregnancy and all my babies have been between 7 - 12 days late. I am 34 and half weeks now with my 4th and these past few days i have had a few aches and regular tightenings (some quite intense and feel crampy) i am working from home at the moment and only sitting down. Had a bit of a stressful morning (arguing with the OH) and did a fair bit of walking too then came back and did some work and just finished a bit of hoovering and tidying up. Throughout the day i have had a few pains in my lower back and more tightenings and now i have a bit of cramping pain, am a little concerned. Baby is nice and active so no concerns there. I have also been extremely hormonal the pat week and the slightest thing sets me off into a rage :/

Do you think i may go early based on these symptoms?? i seem to remember feeling like this when i was over due :(

I would always say go with your instincts, I just delivered a baby at 34weeks last weekend, i had known weeks before that he didnt want to wait until his due date, I told my nan a few week ago "he will be here before may" hospital said 3 days before he was born 99% sure he wont come in the next 2 week because I had a negative actum partis test...it was wrong. I was niggling and in pain and losing blood streaked plug for around 5 weeks though. But whenever you are concerned, do get checked out just to be on the safe side. My other babys were 42 weeks, 40+5 and 38 weeks.

Congtats :) How is your baby now? How long will he be in hospital for?
Just curious as I really think this one will be early.
pains subsided a bit but just come back again :(

If you don't mind me asking, does this baby have the same father as other DCs? Only asking because a friend had 4 kids, first 3 overdue (2 of which had to be induced) and 4th arrived at 35 weeks. Different father for 4th (older 3 had same father).

Yep all same dad
