I’m 39+2, I had the worst pressure down there last night and then didn’t sleep well at all last night due to some really weird dreams and terrible backache and since I got up I have contractions every 5 or 10 minutes. Feels very real now!
No waters breaking yet or mucus plug though.

I had this yesterday but my baby is chilling out like its a spa holiday now so I hope you progress more than me

You might not lose a plug or have your waters break, dont worry if not or wait for those to be a sign- for contractions that regular I would call the hospital to let them know, heres hoping this is it!!

Eee how exciting! I’m Jel 🤣🤣 🧘♀️ sending you good vibes!
So I’m 38 + 1 weeks and they have said they will be inducing me on my due date if my sweeps aren’t successful.
I went for one yesterday, my midwife said no chance of a sweep as my bodies not ready after checking and said we can try next week.
I’m a tad nervous they are going to have to induce me, in case it just makes birthing 10x worse. Has anyone had any issues when being induced?

Is anyone else on their 2nd baby and just absolutely huge. This was me last Wednesday at 31 weeks pregnant! Now 32 weeks. Can't believe there's another 2 months to go. It doesn't feel possible to grow anymore?!

Hi I’m pregnant with my first baby in January and would love some name suggestions 🩵

I was previously a TA and found out in the summer holidays I was pregnant after accepting a new job in September in a nursery.
It’s only my second day and I’m struggling so much! I’m waiting to tell them after my 12 week scan in another week’s time but I’m so exhausted. I can’t do any nappies or many jobs until my 3 month probation is up so I’m just sat with the children not doing much feeling so sick! Has anyone been in a similar position before?

Any idea why this has happened? It’s in the fold

So baby is still not here 😞
Anyone had their waters broken? How long did it take to go into labour after doing that? Ive been told thats all i will need to be induced as im 5cm now but nothing is happening for me 😞
