I'm Currently Feeling: | FINALLY i think im in labour well as long as the contractions dont stop i am in labour! been getting them since like 4am! was really wierd because i kept waking up with a really bad cramps and then as i was trying to dose back off another one would wake me up but because i was half asleep i wasnt really paying much attention to them but then they got stronger to the point where i couldnt stay in bed! so i got up and got a bath etc had a hot chocy! at first i thought it was just poo pains LOL!
so anyway ive phoned the hospital because the pains r UNBAREABLE but apparently "this is just the start" and i must "get used to it" because there going to get worse!
the pains are 4/5 mins apart but only about 30-35 seconds long! ive had more diorrhea aswell. ive also had a show which was blood streaked but only slightly lol!
thing is that all the pain is under my bump not anywere else.
the hospital said ring them if contractions get longer and that i could be like this all day and IF THEY STOP just carry on as normal! so this could actually just stop and i just carry on and wait lol! but she said its unlikely that its not proper labour if im a week overdue!
the only thing thats making me think it may not be proper labour is that the pains r just under my bump, but they are seriously painful.
and has anybody any idea how long i could be waiting for them to get longer lol x |

I'm Currently Feeling: |  I'll probably go into labour while I'm on here!
Sounds like the real thing to me, although I'm not an expert.
I've never heard of labour starting and stopping when babies overdue! |
