Hey mama, I feel you! 🫶🏼
I had a stalled labour + prodromal/early labour signs for some time which were driving me mad. I lost my sleep in the last couple of days before giving birth - I was only able to get a few hours on the sofa at a time…
What helped me most was movement - walking as much as possible (obviously I was very slow at the end, but didn’t want to give up).
I was very excited when I could feel more contractions, thought it was finally happening but then my labour stalled… was frustrated and went on a long curb walk which proved to be effective and my waters broke.
Wishing you best of luck and an easy delivery 🫶🏼
