I had what felt like period pains at the start of my labour. They lasted a good few hours before real contractions started but could be a sign things are starting to happen!! Good luck X

Sounds like it!!! Good luck!

I had this for about a day and a half before proper labour started! All the best GrinFlowers

I think this sounds like the start of it! The body often has a little clear out at the start of labour to make sure the bowel is empty and as much space as possible inside you for baby to start moving down and out! Exciting! Good luck!

How are you getting on? X

Go to sleep. If you’re lucky you’ll wake up having missed a huge chunk of uncomfortable.
