Ok so thought I would give you an uodate on me. !asically all last weekend ws having cramps sporadically and thought nothing much of it. Come 7 on sunday evening was getting cramps bang on every 24 minutes. @hils face when I he realised the precision of it was v.funny. That night got down to every 7 minutes and was really painful. Spoke to a friend who said take paracetanol and get sleep. Was very sore though but dropped off. Next day same thing however by monday evening it was every 5 ninutes for like a minute a time and was agony and kept feeling like I'd wet myself. Spoke to the hospital who said there was no point going in as there was no guarantee it was my waters or anythinghowever they booked an appt for me to go check the next morning but that I would prob have my baby early morning but if not to just go to appt. Went along and was asked why I hadn't taken a used pad and I explained that I hadn't been told to take one. She rolled her eyes did a speculum thibg said my waters hadn't gone and gave me a leaflet. 4he was really patronising, made me feel like a stupid little girl and said that it was just early labour and that it could take days yet.tHey weren't bothered bout the pain or anything else.I felt like I was inconveniencing them.

Pain continued and would get seriously bad, too the point where I couldn't speak or move and so made phil have sex with me haha however he couldn't physically get in cos of where baby's head is now. Great. All weds pain was same called hosp for advice and reassurance and all I got told was I don't have to go in. Nothing else at all. No reassurance explanation if what my body is doing or anything.

5ecided to call my normal MW and she explained that I'm in ealry labour that it could be anytime for him to come. /ot a bit impatient so asked phil if he could touch my cervix. He did and crapped himself when he found it said it was really really squishy, thin and he could easily fit a couple of fingers ib (I know it a little dodgy but I was getting desperate to know something ws happening and I wasn't suFfering for nothing).

That night (last) I woke up cos I thought I had wet myself but from further back. I couldn't be bothered getting out of bed if I had jst dreamed the feeling so felt my underwear and it felt really oily and wet. 1ent to bathroom abd released the liquid. It wssnt urine just a clear oily liquid. I thought it night have been my waters but decided to wait a couple of hours to see if anything else happened throughtout the nightm I woke up a couple of hours later and got up to see if anything else came out abd some more of this liquid trickled down my legs so cleaned myself up and got back to bed but conttactiony cramps started up every 5 minutes for minute and half and were agony. 9alled hospital and she said to check whetjer it was my waters my lyibg down for an hour and standing up to see if anything else was released. ,othing was and she dismissed the pain.

4o that's where I am now. My body is doing everything it should apparently but slowly. I'm tired always in pain, irritable. 6eel isolated like no one is helping or explaining what's happening and am really confused as to when an appropriate tine to go to hosp is. ,ever wanna call them again as they are patronising and make me feel like a panicky woman. I'm confused, and worried now about ny waters. Iv tried to ask for help as to when and what to do everyone tells me differebt things if they tell me anythingm

Just want this to be over.........
(Habks for all your support ladies you have been brill and sorry for typo's new phone and funny buttons

Xxxxxx
 
Aw honey x big big hugs x really hope things start to pick up for you x x
 
Omg Hun, that's awful!! They need to see you!! If your getting pains every 5 mins lasted that long then you have to be in labour! The least they could do is check! If I was you I'd go to the hospital and demand to be seen!! Goodluck hun and hope things start progressing! x x
 
goodness really feel for you hope things pick up and you have more help from the midwifes xx
 
please go in and demand to be seen to, they might be right and send you home but atleast you get some more reacurance then when you know they have acctually checked you over X
 
It is good that you are on your way but they are treating you awful. I would have thought they,d at least be examining you to see what is happening. Just take it easy and rest as much as you can and be prepared to make a quick exit to the hospital xx
 
So sorry things arn't going so well Hun.. The hospital/midwifes doesn't seem to be helping things either. Fingers crossed everything speeds up for you xx
 
Sorry to hear you're not getting the support you need from the hospital, I agree with the others - they should at least have you back in to check whether that was your waters going. Hope things get moving a bit faster for you and you're holding LO very soon, good luck :)
