Prodromal Labour? Im exhausted 🥱
Any advice or encouraging thoughts welcome ❤️

Due date is tomorrow but for the last 2 weeks i have been experiencing what feels like prodromal labour. I have lost my mucus plug twice now and am getting contractions often and regularly but they don’t seem to intensify (This has been going on for 2 weeks nearly). Currently Im having to bare into them and squat or be on all fours, but am still able to walk and talk through most of them. These go on for a few hours and then just stop completely, however sleep is not coming easy. Im sooo uncomfortable and get contractions through the night too (as well as everything aching). Its beginning to get exhausting now 😅
Im 22 and this is my first pregnancy. I know she will come when she is ready but my gosh can she be ready now 😆🫣
Any recommendations on how i can encourage things to move forward. I have tried so many of the standard recommendations and my midwife has said we can discuss a sweep at my next appointment but they wouldn’t want to consider until i was 40wks 🥲

I had this as well. And I’ve done lots of walking in that day. Later after midnight she was born in the hospital 8 minutes later 😅
