I had regular pains Saturday night they were coming every 10 minutes for about an hour then stopped.
I've had on and off pains since then and I've still got that soreness and pressure in my coccyx.
2 of my friends have predicted that she'll come tomorrow, so we'll see. I've double checked my hospital bag just in case. Particulary because 1 of those friends predicted that I'd have a girl before I even got pregnant!!

Yesterday I was having tightenings every 10 minutes on the trace machine at the hosptal when I went for my check up but it hasn't amounted to anything yet. Keep getting wind like pains in my tummy and keep feeling like I need the toilet. 
Getting a lot of jelly cm and I had a tiny bit of pink in it earlier. Really hope something starts soon.
Nicky, mildly and neev all really sounds promising!!
Danni hope your appointment went well.

Sounds like everyone is having great signs at the moment 
Nicky, yay for more plug coming away I reckon things will happen for you tomorrow 
Dannii, am thinking of you at the hospital, really hope that they do give you a sweep and it gets things moving
bunnymom, sounds really promising, especially that the pressure and soreness is still there
lisa, wow sounds like your show/plug is happening and that you are in latent labour phase with those tightenings
Neev soo excited for you
Well today much the same as yesterday period pains, backache, twinges, stomach ache and needing to go to the loo! I decided to walk to the local shop, a two minute walk on a non-pregnant day, took me about twenty as I was really out of breath and kept feeling loads of pressure down there. Then this afternoon I was washing up and suddenly felt very faint and hot so had a lie down on the bed for a couple of hours with a really sick feeling and soreness of bump - Oscar was wriggling and making things worse too! I feel better now and again have no idea whether the sickness was labour preparations or just random queasiness

thinking somethings starting... 
the past couple of days ive been really achey and i mean REALLY achey. constantly feeling as though i need a wee/poop like a constipated pain, first though it was... but nope deffo not constipated, im completely cleared out
sorry if TMI . then slime yes SLIME was leaking out of my woowooo (how mature) hehe clear slippery stuff not your usual CM so much so pads have been getting changed more regulary the past couple of days and thoughout last night and today i have had period like pains (only way i can describe the background ache) and then whoppin big pains on top of them, the big pains have no set pattern or anything they can range from 10 mins apart to 45 mins... my bump goes rock solid im sore down there, my bum?! and my spine when the pain comes on me stops me in my tracks and makes me wimper like a wounded puppy. may i also add paracetomol are about as much use as a chocolate teapot! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr 
gonna keep an eye on them an check nothings becoming too regular, well tbh theres peters eyes on me my dads and my brothers, theyre all on edge, i swear though if i get asked if i need to go the hospital 1 more time i will kill
Ive got my midwife tommorrow anyway
if im not holding my daughter by then....
nah seriously i cant see it being for a few more days atleast.

not really in a rush, well i am now if it is labour i want a bish bash bosh labour in and out so to speak not a week long epic haha... dont always get what we want though do we
. my family thought i was mad, i forced peter to take me to the local shopping centre to buy socks???? (got loads but needed nice new 1s) knickers, new pjs, more maternity pads, playmat and gym thing and an electric sterilizer.
had a major pain before lasted ages too ... knocked me 4 six ended up crouched leaning on the sofa saying my extensive swear word vocabulary haha
i have had the worst sleep ever, i woke up loads in the night with pains again, not getting regular at all, one could be 45 mins to an hour from the last and others was 5 or less mins. 
peter has come in from work (nights) so ive got out of bed and come downstairs so i dont disturb him with my whimpering.
oh and LOADS more clear slime.
im so tired prob just dose on the couch watching jeremy kyle (my mat leave best friend teehee)
off to see midwife at 2 so maybe she can shed a bit of light on whats going on.
so tired xxHope your midwife appointment went well Vix 
No real change for me, back pain, real pelvic heaviness, twinges etc. Period pains seem to have lessened a bit and Oscar seems a bit more active today so I reckon he's holding out for next week Strangely I feel much less irritable and in quite a good mood (which is a change from the last week ). OH has told me I need to tell Oscar that Friday/Saturday would be very handy as he has quite a few important meetings at work next week I get the feeling that he isn't intending to take any paternity leave at all

Backache, pressure, period pains, loads of BH's today. Um, nothing else really.
DH is swamped at work and is guessing it'll be another week, I reckon it's wishful thinking because he doesn't want to have to work from home!
I'm really getting annoyed at people asking me numerous times a day how I'm doing. Numerous times a day, I'm not sure how long I can bite my tongue.

If you are feeling good around your DD, then that's brilliant!! I don't know how I managed to keep feeling OK and good til this point But man it's really helped!! Until today, I've been feeling alright! Anxious at what's to come, but feeling good! (Except today lol) but I think that's down to the nerves about the impending induction!
How did the MW appt go Vix?
Not a lot for me. I won't report the cramps/BH because they haven't done anything so far so pointless reporting!

Confused doesnt even begin to describe the way iam feeling...
went to see my community midwife, she measured me 45 weeks
i explained the stuff thats been going on said it was more than likely my waters that have gone.
so i got sent to the day assesment clinic...
had a speculum, full of "gunk" (as it was politely put) so m/w couldnt get a decent look at wether my waters had gone.
so i had a scan, got a great pic of babys face however too much waters????
so i got plonked in a room and strapped to the contraption that measures babys heartbeat...
midwife came back half an hour later to inform me that i am going to be admitted tommorow night to be induced... at 9pm???
didnt expect that one really didnt!
so im being induced at 9.30 pm on the thurs and my due date is the friday so possibly could have my kiddo on the due date

Wow crazy stuff Vix What a strange time to be induced, I wouldn't be surprised if you get bumped to the Friday
Aww Dannii Hope something happens for you soon, I really do hun
Nicky, no more plug like stuff today? Other signs are sounding good Your poor DH, I bet he is quite stressed about the work situation too! I keep trying to tell my OH that babies do not really arrive when it is convenient but he won't listen
I have my 40+1 week appointment tomorrow, I might try and convince them to have a check and see what is happening down there, As much as I don't really want my bits prodded I am curious as to whether I might be a bit dilated or whether my cervix is favourable or not. I dreamt last night that they checked at my appointment and I was 6cm dilated Yeah wishful thinking on my part, especially as I would be impressed to have made it that far without feeling anything other than twinges and a bit of pressure

LOL wouldn't it be lovely if your dream was true Mildly!? Have one for me! I would ideally love a painfree labour if possible. Go sleep Mildly, and dream about my ideal labour please xx

xxI'm cheating a bit as it's not 100% my body doing ALL the work... But...
Last night I was getting contractions with period pain (only mild mind, nothing bad) all night every 10 mins or so. They tailed off this morning but came back around midday. The contractions were monitored when I went for my sweep (every 8 minutes).
Had my sweep, lost some goo and blood, getting the cramps still with the BH (and without which I think is the cervix reacting to the sweep) and I'm 2cm dilated! Evie's fully engaged so we're ready to go for tomorrow!!
FINALLY!! x

In addition to my usual aches and pains, I seem to be experiencing a really heavy, achy feeling in the pit of my stomach which is worse after I stand up. Oscar is feeling particularly heavy today and I was getting quite a few fanjita stabbings as I walked to the shop just now. Feeling very tired too so although I've slept about 12 hours last night, I think a snooze on the sofa is in order
