START OF EARLY LABOUR?

[nadinetd]

morning girls

for past 24 hours i have had dull dragging period pains in my lower tummy under bump, im 36 weeks, they come in waves been timing them and they vary from 8-13 mins, rang hospital they said if waters go or get to every 7 mins go down as could be signs of early labour? did any of yours start like this? this is my first so i thought it would be agonising pain staright away, its not braxton hicks as i know how they feel,

they said u can get these pains up to a week before going into active labour?

thanks

sounds right i had periody pains when my waters broke at 38 weeks but coz it was red hot thought it was just aches ifswim good that you rang hospital if in doubt go to labour ward

OH MAYBE IT IS THEN WHEN ITS UR FIRST UR NOT SURE ALTHOUGH MY SISTER JUST HAD HER 3RD AND WASNT SURE EVEN THEN.

FINGERS CROSSED MAY ALL KICK OF SOON THEN.

THANKS X

best of luck id stick a pad just in case hyou have a show or yor waters go makmes diagnosis easier coz they will ask if it smells and what it look likes
