Start of early labour?

Feel like I'm getting my hopes up here but I'm 37+6 and I've got a constant ache in my lower back and some mild period like pain, nothing coming and going like contractions though. I feel like I need to poo but when I've tried to go there was nothing.

Could this go on for the next couple of weeks? I was induced with my first so I don't know what it's like to go into labour naturally.

Welcome October Twins

We did it! Hit 37 weeks on the nose for our October twin boys delivered via c section.

For any mamas at Heartlands in Birmingham - BRING YOUR OWN BUTTER! The trust has removed butter and replaced it with margarine, thankfully I was pre warned 🤣

For those who have had two c sections

Hi ladies, I was wondering how recovery was after having two c sections?
Iv had one and planning another. First recovery was fine but wondered how second one would be xx

Mama's who had a VBAC after one c-section I have questions!

How long did you push for your VBAC?

Did your scar change the sensation /pain levels of your contractions?

What gestation did you go into labor with your c-section vs your vbac?

And only semi related to c-section, if you were induced with your first and not with your VBAC, how did the contractions differ?

Also if you got to 10 CM and didn't push before your c-section at all let me know because I'm extra interested in hearing from you since that was my experience!

Multiple c-section mums…

When you had your second c-section, did they cut over the old scar or make a new incision?
