My doctor said pretty much the same thing but said that it doesn't mean that it will happen soon. Last week I was at a 2 and you can be there for a long time before anything happens. Hopefully all of us get some relief soon and get to snuggle our babies.
im 36+6 and im havin the same thing for almost a week now. my midwife told me its just the body preparing and to be ready any day now for it to happen.
Yup, its all good signs, think of it that the more your body does for you now, the less you will have of the intense labour part (hopefully!!) My second labour (it was my first natural one) only lasted 4hrs after me having the same thing as you guys and my 3rd one was less than 3hrs long! Fingers crossed for you all :)
I'm laying here awake with crampy pains too. Its lasting forever. Can't our babies just get here already
Im not that far and this is my first but
good luck ladies.
Cant wait to hear from you
Don't feel bad :/....I don't think my little one will come any time soon either....at least we know our bodies are at least doing something :)
Im 38+5 weeks and been havin the same for a week or two but still hasnt came to anything :-(
Lol oh boy!!!! Thank you so much...And I'll start timing them :)
Sounds like your body is preparing for the main event! Its horrible, but this part could last a while, I always had it for a week or so before actually going into full labour. Keep an eye on the clock when you get uncomfortable and if the contractions start to find a rhythm and increase in intensity then its time to get those bags in the car! Good luck! :)
