I rang the midwives at the hospital and explained all my symptoms. They have said to keep and eye on it over the next few hours and to come in if it gets worse - they didn't seem at all concerned. I know they are the experts here and I should listen to them (and I will go in if it gets worse) after all the issues i've had at this hospital though, their words don't fill me with confidence.

I'm sure I will know it when it happens...but like i've said, since my dr told me he really thought i'd go early i've become paranoid and since I didn't get to experience any part of a "natural labour" (I was induced with DD) I'm scared i'll miss some sign

Thanks girls for your support and advice... i know i'll be back in again before baby comes asking more questions.
