Ok, so I run the risk of lookin stupid here, but here goes anyway... this is what mumsnet is for after all!!
Getting sharp pains in my back since yest afternoon. 37+2 wks today. Here's a run-down of events, starting from about 4pm yest.
About 6 short, sharp pains in middle back, all in the same small area, just to the right hand side of the spine in the space of 1hour, each lasting no more than 1 or 2 seconds.
Nothing more for about 5 hours.
About 12 more short, sharp pains in exactly the same spot as before over the period of about 90mins, this time towards the end they were lasting slightly longer- 3-4 seconds each.
Strong BH when going to bed.
Slept about 6 hours.
5 more sharp pains on rhs of middle back, same spot as before, lasting up to 5 seconds each.
Niggly twinges on lower left hand side of back on & off since this.
Could this be very early labour? These pains are not at all what I imagined it to be like, but maybe it's just early stages? Or am I being stupid here? Opinions from those with experience needed, please! Thanks.
