hi. 2nd pregnancy, 40+4 days overdue.
had my midwife appt yesterday, head was engaged, midwife felt baby’s head. I was 1cm dilated and she did a sweep.
i lost my mucus plus last night and continued to into the morning. 6am I had contractions so very strong pains in my back and abdomen. Every ten mins for 6 hours. Then they just completely stopped. The pressure down there is unreal. Now Iv started to get really bad pain in my lower back, so painful. I every ten mins lasting only like 20-30 seconds if that. Is that a contraction? There’s no tightening.
Im so stressed, confused. I would really appreciate all your help, advice, reassurance, your own experiences and knowledge would be great too.
thank you in advance xx
