Diarrhoea (tmi) 39+4

[Chickenfillets]

woke up this morning with the worst bowels ever. Had really bad cramping until I went, now I just have period pains, feeling like I need to go again but unable to is this normal? Baby's moving around rapidly and I'm scared it's distressing him. Also when I did go, my bump went really tight and tensed up

Sounds like the start of labour to me!

Sounds like you're going into labour - good luck!

Really?? I don't have any severe pains just period pains that come for a few seconds then go again. I feel completely normal in every other way though? Just feels like a dicky stomach.

The diarrhoea is just your body clearing out getting ready for baby coming.... So hopefully no 'accidents' when you're pushing!

Period pains and bump tightening could possibly be Braxton Hicks or contractions!

Oooo how exciting thanks!

Ohh exciting OP. I'm thinking you'll be holding your newborn ready for the weekend. Keep us posted!!

Ahh sounds like labours starting!! How exciting good luck!!

Sounds like early labour to me. Baby should be here by weekend

I hope your all right my dsis had a dream I was going to go into labour today. How spooky if I do!

Sounds like me exactly 10 weeks ago today. I'm sitting here cuddling my 10 week old DD :) good luck!

Baby's coming

Definitely sounds like labour is starting. I had exactly the same symptoms when I had my DD2.
good luck Chickenfillets

This is how my labour with my ds started, the runny tummy cramps were actually early contractions. See if they increase or become regular. Good luck!

I'm with everyone else. Def early labour. Get some rest now whilst you can!! X

Ahhhh thanks everyone. Still only got mild period pains nothing more happening just yet. Also still feeling like I really need to poo but can't

definitely sounds like labour!
love a live birth thread

Are you all packed and ready?

How exciting!

Body's natural way of clearing out ready for the big finale!

Yep all packed and ready have been for ages can't stop peeing aswell, had more trips to the toilet today than I have in my whole pregnancy.

How exciting! Good luck with everything!

Definitely sounds like things are Happening. :)
I also had to wee loads in labour because baby was wriggling down to get out. Hopefully not long now then.

Managed to go toilet again and pains seem to have died down maybe it was just a dicky tummy.

Oh no! Get on that birthing ball or go for a walk/up and down the stairs :)

shameless placemarking how exciting! We love a live birth thread. Get moving around chicken fillets, brisk walk to get things going again. Good luck!

Iv been up and down the stairs sorting washing out cleaning up, I'm now currently bouncing away on my ball. Come on baba!

Come on baby chickenfillets
