I hope so. In the same boat, was due christmas. Been 2 cm for three weeks. Contractions will be a bit painful and get more regular, closer together and stronger as she progresses if it is true labor.

I'm 40 + 2. Having tightenings along with period pain like cramps, very tired and nausea. It's early early stages of labour I think.
