Homebirth General Discussion #7

Well, I'm in a nicely established early labour pattern and it's definitely regular. I don't think it's going to ease off, but who knows with these things. I woke up from 1.30am with the start but managed to sleep off and on until 6.30am.

Now I'm just sticking around close to home, wearing out the fit ball and relaxing. I wouldn't call these comfortable, but they're def not painful or too intense. Lasting 20-25 secs every five mins or so. M/w says she'll come when they're lasting about 45 secs.

I think this will take the day if it continues, but hopefully I'll be back on the other side of birth!
