UPDATE :

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

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

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

No tears or grazes :D

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

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

Not too sure but think I might be in labour :shock: 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 :shock:

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

Just had another while trying to write this :|

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

So this could be it :shock: 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 :hug:
 
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 :D
