How long should a show last?

[LubyLoo222]

Been having this show since fri night. Like wearing a sani pad and passing clots. I went into hospital yesterday and they werent concerned about baby had him on ctg and all fine, but seriously i thought a show was a 1 day occurance. And on top of this i had a show last weekend too! Getting pretty painful intense tightenings too and feel sick and my head is pounding. This has to be the worst part. Slow early labour 😭😭

Ps its my 2nd so i know obviously the pain gets worse but i had none of this first time round i just contracted and my show happened with waters breaking. Least when they are regular i know hes actually on his way!

I was always in early-ish labour when I got my show so I'm not sure how helpful my experience will be, but with all 3 children my show didn't really stop coming

I hope you have a baby in your arms soon OP.

I'd say you ought to go in again. It's worth being extra careful if you're passing clots - and if you're getting intense contractions you might not be as far off as you think. Good luck!

Feel like ive not been away from the place since 37 weeks i have like 3 appointments a week to monitor growth and bp. Roll on normality!

If you are passing actual blood clots you need to go in, if it is blood with mucous this is normal and can go on for days on end
