Is labour near?

[Mel892020]

I’m currently overdue by 9 days and am getting moderately painful pains under my bump…
They started around 3/4 hours ago they are regular and sticking around regardless if I’m walking or moving about they’re not wearing off, however they’re not getting any stronger (not taking my breath away or making me curl into a ball😂) could this be the beginning or does this sound like the latent/early stages?

Ah lovely update, huge congrats OP! Welcome to the world little Fran.

How did the delivery go @Mel892020?

@ShirleyPhallus it honestly was a gorgeous delivery when I look back now! (Not at the time ) from getting to the hospital she was born within 45 minutes, in the birthing pool and still inside her amniotic sac!😍

Omg that’s amazing!!!! How unusual! I am so pleased for you, sounds wonderful.

No pressure but a pic wouldn’t go amiss….

That does sound absolutely amazing. So glad that you didn't wait until your waters had broken before going to the hospital!
