EDD/How many weeks: 40+1, 10/02

How are you feeling: I am a cow. I have no patience for anything, I'm sore and so tired. I look forward to Tues and Thurs when DS is at daycare so I don't have to do anything extra. I had maybe 5 or 6 contractions yesterday and then nothing. My nether bits are so sore from wiping 3743843873947593 times a day.

Next Appt: MW tomorrow at 1030am. Hopefully she will tell me I've made some progress.

Anything left to do: Not really. Probably will have to repack my hospital bag, but it depends on what time I head to the hospital. There will ideally be no overnight stay.

Favourite thing about fall: Bring on Uggs and Scarves.

EDD/How many weeks: 9/29 - 40w 4d

How are you feeling: Crampy and I've been having insomnia again which sucks

Next Appt: I had an appointment this afternoon. BPP looked good. Doc said I'm 2cm dilated and did a membrane sweep. And now I just wanna curl up in the fetal position because I'm all crampy. Do contractions feel like cramps??

Anything left to do: I feel like I should rewash the stuff in my hospital bag since it's been sitting in there for a month now. But I think lying down sounds like a better idea.

Favourite thing about fall: The leaves changing color.

The early ones do. You'll know "real" contractions because, at least to me, you'll get pain shooting down your cervix that started in your stomach.

pippacricket - I had started having contractions before my appointment but I'm pretty sure my membrane sweep pushed me into labor for real. I THINK my contractions started off feeling like bad cramps. I can't actually remember for sure already. Guess you really do forget about the pain of labor!

I actually felt nothing in my cervix.

pippacricket my early contractions felt like period cramps.

pippacricket I had back labor so my contractions felt like bad period cramps in my lower back.

[hurricanerek]

pippacricket, cramps that feel like your period are definitely good! Something's happening and your body knows it has a time limit! I hope this means your labor is happening sooner rather than later.

[danizee]

With both pregnancies early labor started with period like cramping. The contractions felt like waves with pain slowly building, peaking and then dissipating. That's how I was able to distinguish the difference

Good luck @snuff9861 & pippacricket. So sorry you're still in the late pregnancy game. Babies have gotta be here soon!
