Yesterday i went to court with my lil bro and while on the way noticed i was getting some tightening and some very uncomfortable pains but i tried to ignore it and keep on with my day as im quiet aware of BH at this stage...

Around 12.30 the pains where so bad that i was actually crying and rang my DH who works at the train station in the city near where i was and got him to call the hospital to see what they thought.. They said wait an hour and if things dont improve come in and see what is going on..

At that stage i was getting really scared due to never having a natural onset of labour and contractions and her movements where very few at this stage...

I waited an hour and after all that i ended up at the hospitals door step very frustrated and very incomfortable.. they put my on a machine after they could feel the tightenings themselves and arranged for me to have a speculum i thhink they call it.. i was having very small contractions but nothing major but big enough to be noticed and after half hour they settled all on their own.. and Thank God my cervix was not opening at all...

I now have been put on a rest plan where i have certain periods i have to make for rest time due to the unknown cause of what brought this on..

i just wanted to share my joy as this time yesterday i thought everything was going the wrong way and that my lil girl was trying to come way to early...
