Hi,
Woke up about half 5 this morning with a weird rippling pain through my stomach, it wasn't terribly painful by any means but deffo a stronger sensation than braxton hicks.
It happened about 2 or 3 times over half an hour ish but there was no clear start or end really which is what I'd imagine with contractions. Anyway, I got up to try some breakfast and it seemed to just go.
I've just been for a walk later this afternoon and I've got terrible period type pain in my back now but again no sort of start/finish, it's more like a constant pain.
I'm 40+3 first baby so no idea what I should be feeling.
Due for a sweep tomorrow too so wondering if it may progress overnight or if I should just go ahead tomorrow morning and see what happens.
My mum said she felt all 3 of her labours in her back.
Any advice appreciated x
