Podpie, because this is your first and your body is doing this for the first time magical things will be going on in the background. Your cervix will be getting all squishy and ready and baby will be moving a bit further down. All these pains that feel like nothing is starting for you are all helping your body get ready. Take heart podpie that you are getting there

it's so frustrating and worse I think on your first because each pain leaves you wondering if this is it, I lost count of the times I went to L&D with my daughter thinking it was it only to be sent home again. Hang in there Hun, you will get there. Thinking of you, I know it's not easy to be in this pre labour state xx
Missbx congratulations! Xx
I had a restless night, I've somehow managed to mess up the heating boiler (it's a remote control wifi thingy) and now can't programme the heating so it's flipping freezing here! Got to phone the landlord today to help before baby comes!
The low down contraction pain went away after a few hours but left me with backache now, still the same period like feeling. I'd rather not be induced, but I know it's necessary so if my body can work hard this week at preparing for it, then it will make it easier! I don't see him coming early, but apparently it can happen with GD so we will see, it's my birthday on Thursday and also OH's sister's birthday so you never know lol.
