ooooh Im getting pretty strong pains in my lower belly ans back every 5 mins or so, lasting about a min. OH not back from work yet and trying to fend off a bored 4 year old. Its the back ache that has got me thinking cos I havent suffered with it at all throughout pregnancy. Literally started about 45 mins ago with no warning - here comes another one. No other symptoms though. Typical though if this is it as parents are in Spain, OH dad in Greece and OH mum lives in London!
