False starts - tell me some good news

[MSMB]

Past couple of nights I've woken up to braxton hicks and period type pain. Last night/early hours they were particularly intense so I was convinced little bab was on her way and got myself all geared up... A few hours later and they faded away and now I just feel a bit achy and pelvic/back pain. My friend says I could be like this now for the next couple of weeks (I'm 37+4) someone tell me I'm more likely for the real thing to happen soon!!

Same boat! I've been having this since week 35 and I'm now 38+2. I figure it all helps with getting my body ready and bubs will decide in his own time.

Be interesting to see if yours comes soon. Certainly sounds like your body is warming up! Good luck and stay relaxed. It's more likely to happen.

I really hope so I'm so impatient and I'll be exhausted if it carries on. Fingers crossed both our babs arrive sooner rather than later
