Started having regular mild to increasingly uncomfortable contractions from about 4pm yesterday...every 7-8 minutes, throughout the night. Have seen evidence of the mucus show (a little blood too) and thought Yay!! He's going to come on the due date...how punctual of him (November 1)! However, woke up this morning and despite severe back pain and more mucus show, the contractions now are few and far between... and it almost feels as if the whole labour process has stopped....What's going on???
