Hi Kylie,

I have been experiencing on and off 'period' like cramping for the past few weeks and have mentioned this to my OBS, who advised it is all part of my body getting ready for labour. I am fairly sure I have not experienced any BH either, although I did mention that my tummy had got really hard the other day but truly thought it was bubs' back, but OBS seemed to think it was BH, now I don't know. (I too have some x-tra padding!). Sounds like you have lost your mucous plug - I haven't lost mine (or haven't noticed), so I think your body is definately getting ready for labour! How exciting! When is your due date?
