Think I might be in labour! **UPDATED - HE'S HERE!!!**

[Rachel]

UPDATE :

My little boy (No name yet) was born at 4.35pm today after 2hr 54min active labour. Homebirth was great Will do a proper birth story when I feel upto it.

Baby is asleep now - he had a good breastfeed Ive had a bath and feel fine and my mums gone off to the takeaway

Don't know howmuch baby weighs yet, midwife coming with scales in morning. midwife reckons about 6lbs though.

No tears or grazes

Used all the gas n air - midwife had to go get some more lol

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Not too sure but think I might be in labour At 10am this morn I started getting period like pains but over the past 30mins or so they have got alot worse and im finiding it quite hard to cope with them now

Theyre coming every 5-10mins ish...not sure how long theyre lasting, feels like forever though

Just had another while trying to write this

I've been to the toilet aswell a few times for my 'clear out' Sorry TMI

So this could be it Scared.

If I go for a bath will it stop the contractions or make them worse?

Just wanted to wish you luck.. I would have a warm bath.. If you are inlabour it should help things along nicely

Good luck x

Oh wow, how exciting. Sounds like labour especially with the icreasing pain. I think that if it is true labour a bath shouldn't stop the contractions, it might help take the edge off the pain though.

Good luck
