Bloody show to labour

Indulge me MN'ers!

40+4, 1 sweep down at 40+1 (was 1cm and stretchy), lots of lower back ache, twinges and pains but nothing remotely patterened. Lost lots of mucus plug over the last week but finally just seen the 'bloody show', plenty of it too.

What to expect next..... Contractions, waters breaking... And how long could it be?

What was your experience? I know there is no right answer but feeling optimistic!! Feel free to come crush this with some realism please!

Absolutely gutted. Contractions all morning and now only two in last hour.... Slowing down!

Me and hubby off for a walk and lunch.

This pre-labour sucks! Had the TENS on for hours.

Just back from the walk round the block which took 30 minutes! 3 contractions so back to 1 in 10... At least they haven't stopped completely and they are definitely long and strong x

The early labour is awfully frustrating. Baby is on the way though!
Good luck. Grin
