I've never done this before, and given that I'm due tomorrow I'm assuming everything is 'pre labour' but wondering if anyone can shed some light from their own experience?

On Saturday night I had what I thought were contractions every 10 minutes for about 6 hours. They didn't get any stronger or longer, and I ended up going to sleep (what, with the election the only thing on telly, no wonder!)

Nothing yesterday except losing some more of my plug (has been happening since my S&S on Thursday)

Today I had what I think was a contraction this morning, but since then have been having regular 'twinges' in my pelvis. I'm not sure I know what my cervix 'feels' like, but it's definitely in that area. I have a slight backache, but I don't think it's anything different to the last couple of weeks. The twinges feel a little like bubba is butting his head down, if nothing else....

Um... I'm not sure If I have an actual question!!! Having never had period pain- is this what contractions feel like?
