Devastated after 17 hours of contractions and constant pain in my pelvis, it's all stopped. No progress made.
41 weeks today.

hang in there. I know the feeling! This happened for 3days before DS was born.
And it's all progress, it's just your body preparing in its own little weird way. Is Bub still moving ok? as long as bubs happy it's all good.

ReeRee - every contraction does something! Even if it's not active labour yet, you're getting there. Hang in there! I'm guessing when the real thing starts, it will go quickly. All the best!

It might not seem like progress was made...in terms of dialation, but it is all doing wonderful things for your body and baby to prepare. you are incredibly close *ree*. this stop-start stuff is part of your son's birthing journey...

Rest up as much as you can and drink lots of lovely boosting and nourishing drinks to build strength. You and baby are working perfectly and it will happen xx
