I went back for another CTG today due to bubs slowed movement. Last night I started to get period like aching in the lower pelvis and lower back.
The CTG was picking up contractions and midwives thought I might even be starting labour but then an internal test showed no dilation so I was sent home by the Dr.
Now the contractions get strong and regular- enough to make it hard to breathe- (but not painful) in sets of about 4 every 5 or 10 minutes then stop. Then start again. lying down doesnt help in fact I think it brings them on!
Im trying to relax and trust my body but its still so early for my baby. I had a good cry today because she is only 34 weeks although over 6 pounds! I am just waiting for further signs like a show or waters breaking before I take more action ie ring the midwives back.
