Woohooo - but first time labours can seem to take forever and the lead up to active labour can seem very slow. if 10 mins apart and not too painful and can talk(?) - i would try and ride it out until your appt.

You might have had a hindwater leak - but that is fine if you and bubs feel fine.

maybe Shel needs some direction, some info to work with KWIM??? - so wouldn't hurt to talk to a midwife - and then you know what your options are.
