    36+5 here. Just take notice of any signs from 34 weeks on. I learnt my lesson there. I had REALLY bad back pain when I was 35 weeks but didn't take any notice of it because I truly believed that I was going to go full term. I had it again the day I went into labour. Just stay positive and keep thinking about keeping your baby in there. I'm a big believer in thoughts having an impact on what happens (mainly due to hormones etc). The day I went into labour, I thought, if this bub decides to come early, I'm ready. My waters broke that afternoon! Good luck hun. There's a slim chance that your bub will come early but a greater chance that you'll go to full term. I think having a doula is a FANTASTIC suggestion! xx

    Blake was born at 36+2, but I was in hospital 2 times from 29-35 weeks with pre labour and other complications, so I assumed he would be early in the end.

    33 weeks 4 days, I progressed very quickly once contractions started 45min after waters broke, 7-8 cm by the time I got to hospital so no time to slow/stop the labour.

    Wishing you a nice FT bundle of joy
