Hi
Just some advice..first time pregnancy and I'm currently 39+3 weeks and I've been experiencing horrendous diarrhea with really bad stomach cramps (not period pains), also bad nausea to the point I feel I'm going to be sick but not vomiting.. could this be early labour or just stomach bug??

Could be the 'flush out' the body has before labour starts. Keep an eye on it. If in doubt ring your midwife xx

How long does a 'flush out' last before labour do you know? x

No idea. I never had one. If your worried or concerned give your midwife a call. It's what they're there for xx

Mine happened the morning I went into labour/was already in labour. It lasted a few hours(but everyone is different) but even though I didn't know for definite at that point that it was labour I remember being a bit panicky. Good luck if it is! X

No unfortunately for me it was the norovirus, unlucky me. Thanks for the advice x
