ok i had one of those first time mummy freak outs yesterday after realising i had not felt anythign from bub in like 5-6 hours!! i rang the hossy and they were great, very reassuring

the MW asked abunch of questions and she said that my period pains and intense braxton hicks and bubs slowing indicates im in pre-labour.
i didnt think bubs slowing had anything to do with it...

i was told what to do to get bbs moving and i did - so was reassured, now today bubs is quiet again, and i have dull period pain again - not much of a back ache today tho..
is this my body winding up to labour soon????
i am 3 days over due - and if bubs is still in by thurs i will be having the induction chat.
is there anythign i can do to help this along???

also, my BP before preg was 90/60 and has now risen to 120/70 - thats gettign dangerous isnt it? the hossy mws dont really believe me about how low it use to be so are not paying alot of attention to it, but my feet and hands are puffed to the point it hurts to walk on my feet, they have seen this and said theres nothing i can do... should i be gettign hard on them? my mum had preeclampsia with me and my broter so dont want it to come to that!!!
