Cricket, don't think of it as false labour as such hun. Think of it as "pre labour" all of these pains are preparing and getting your body ready. I know, easy for me to say sitting here. I pre laboured for 2 weeks on and off before finally going into labour with Tehya, so hun, it can always be worse

By the sounds of those pains though, I am pretty sure that labour won't be too far off. Good bitey contractions that go into your thighs are a great sign.
