You poor thing.

A bath with a few drops of clary sage will help relax you and tone your uterus. Ditto with red raspberry leaf tea.

Prodromal labour is such a drag. With #4 I felt like I was in prodromal labour for a month. I guess what helps psychologically is knowing that all these contractions are pushing your baby into a good position for when the real deal.

I know it's easier said than done, but do try to get some rest. I wouldn't be afraid to take a few panadeine to get a couple of good hours' sleep. In fact, I'd even have a temazepam if I had some lying around the house.
