i'm 40+4 went to hospital last night with very bad ctx, was told the baby's head is in front of my cervix which has started to efface.
the midwife said she had stimulated my cervix, and she expects to see me within 24 hours.
since getting home, i have been having such strong ctx and pains that are not going away with a bath and paracetamol.
i've been complaining that i have been waiting too long for this, and now i'm actually really scared about the whole birth.
any words of calm would be great! thanks
