Mel, I agree with the girls - it might be pre-labour, or it might be a bug. Better to be safe than sorry and get yourself checked out. I hope things at home have settled so there's no extra stress there

PM - all good here baby-wise. Still waiting for a headache whose duration is now measured in weeks to go away, although on that front I've woken up feeling ok today, not the pain I had yesterday when I had to leave work. But bubs is growing away, getting lots of movement now - some big thumpers last night which was lovely.

alish - I hope DH can be there in the delivery room if you want him there. FWIW, my DH did NOT want to be there for DS, but he was, and came into theatre for the emergency c/s too (didn't look though). He was so glad to be there for the birth of his son, even if he felt helpless and awful when I was in pain.

angel - glad everything's going well for you I hope your new doctors are as good as your old ones.
