Might be a silly question but I'm a ftm at 37+3
I woke up this morning with really bad pains in my back and side, sorry tmi but I had 3 bouts of diarheaa back pain seemed to ease after that and a nap. labia feels swollen and there's seems to be more pressure down below, I think I have lost a few small bits of my plug over the last few weeks but no show or waters breaking. I am getting like a shooting pain too (not in my urethra) so doubt it's a uti. Baby is very active and actually starting to hurt me when moving. Does anybody have any experience on when to sort of expect labour from this point, I understand everybody is different, I just can't work out if this is the start of things or if it's just because I am getting closer to my due date!
Thank you x

Hi there lelrx,

Sounds like this could well be the start of it. But (sorry) this can go on for a few days sometimes. How are you feeling now? Any sign of movement?

Anyone else care to share their first signs of labour to keep lelrx company while she waits?!
