What do early labour pains feel like?

[mummyphoebe]

Everyone says different from BH and more like period pains. I’ve been up to the loo this morning {urgently } and had a big poo. Also been feeling crampy all over my womb, mostly in the front but reaching upwards. Feels a bit like I’ve had a dodgy curry but know I haven’t. Tummy goes sort of tight when this happens. Is this what early labour pains might feel like?

I spent a lot of time on the loo during early Labour but my waters had broken so I was aware that I was starting Labour. Best of luck OP
