ok, so as the title says I had another CTG today, midwife was pleased with LO moving plenty and showing lots of accelerations after moving........Now she wasn't so happy with me lol......she ended up keeping me on for an hour because I was showing contractions on the trace!!! I wasn't feeling anything apart from an uncomfortable tightening across my belly but apparently when I wasn't having a contraction the tocograph was showing between 7% and 12% and when I did have a tightening it went up to 75%!!!!
Baby is still head down and the midwife also said that she could only feel about 3/5 of his head which is amazing seeing as he was head down but completely free on tuesday.
She was asking lots of questions about how I've been feeling so I told her that I have been really tired for last couple of days, feeling sick for about a week and have thrown up once the other day, this morning I had quite a loose bowel movement (sorry if TMI) and have had loads of discharge for a couple of weeks.
So in conclusion the midwife has said that I may be in very early stages of Labour and that if I have any pain at all with any of the tightenings I am to call the Labour ward and get checked over, and if I lose my plug or feel like my waters may have gone then I must also call Labour ward.
On the other hand she reckons that as baby hasn't been growing for a good few weeks then I'll probably be induced next week anyway, decision will probably be made on monday after my growth scan.
That is of course if I don't go into labour before. xxxx
