    Well I think something might be happening. Still losing my plug and have been having period type cramps all day. They started to get a bit more painful and more often so I started to take notice of how many I have been having over the last few hours and in that time it's been every 10 minutes. Think it might be a bit less than that now but I haven't been timing. It's like low down in my tummy really strong period pain for about a minute or 2. Is this what you call contractions?? I have no idea, lol. They hurt!! How am I going to put up with them getting really bad!! They're bad enough now and I can't keep sitting or lying when I get one, I feel like I have to get up. Oh jeez. I am in love with my heat pack atm.

    Woot woot it is all happening!!!! SJ I am so excited for you, can't wait to read your BA sometime tomorrow.

    I think you will be able to deal with the steadily increasing pain as it comes. Move around and keep loving that heat pack. You have prepared for this moment for so long. Hang in there!

    Thanks guys.
    Yep, I have RLT, have been having lots of cups, now I'm scared to have any coz it might make it hurt more, haha.

    Sounds like labour SQUEEE! This would be the perfect time to practice some of those birthing positions and natural pain relief techniques! Got any raspberry leaf tea? Herbalists say that it can make your contractions more efficient. You'll do brilliantly! OMG SO EXCITED FOR YOU!!
