Not coping with the pain
Had consistent contractions for the last 11 hours, lost my mucus plug and went to the maternity hosp, was having contractions every 1.5 mins when I arrived there yet was only 1cm so got sent home. Baby is sunny side up. I can no longer bare the pain. I don’t know what to do, some of the contractions are so painful I want to phone 999. I can’t do this any longer. I can’t sleep through them, I can’t breathe through them. I’m struggling so so bad

Call triage tell them you can no longer stand the pain and how long you have been contractions without progressing and tell them you want hormone drip. Once you are in hospital on drip they can then give you pethadine to help with the pain.

4D scan 25 weeks anterior placenta
Had a 4D scan today and it was amazing! This is my 4th baby and I can honestly say it still amazes me! His efw is 1lb 12oz 😳🙈 and his head is very comfortable in my ribs whilst I get kicked repeatedly in my vagina 🤣

Literally feels like my vagina is bruised
Has anyone else had this where the best way I can describe it is my vagina feels bruised. I move around or use my leg to move something out of the way then I get a shooting pain down there. Sorry if TMI first time mum so I don't know what's normal.

First birthday ideas?
My partner, my son and I live with my in-laws (hopefully not for too much longer). I’m sooo stuck as to what to do for our son’s birthday in November. We can’t have a party at the house, my in-laws just aren’t those sort of people, plus they have quite a few dogs. We wouldn’t invite enough people to justify hiring somewhere so that’s also off the cards. Any ideas? Really want to do something special for his first birthday.

Period-like pain
36+5 weeks today and I keep getting period type pains but there's no pattern or increasing intensity so I'm assuming they're not contractions. My bowels have also been a bit funny the last couple of days, looser than normal. I had nothing like this with my first baby and I'm also suffering with what I assume to be pelvic girdle pain. I have pain in my groin and I'm struggling to stand up, walk and go up and down stairs.
Is this what it's going to be like for the next 3 weeks? Or have people experienced this and labour has followed not long after?
