What was it? just BH's or a sign of the real thing?

Interesting day and night........
I did absolutely nothing yesterday as my ligaments started playing up and i was feeling uncomfortable......nothing to bad, then about 5pm it started playing up again and i was getting alot of pressure ended up in the shower cos the ligament pain was getting bad, got out and layed down, it eased and eventually stopped......Cam came into my bed at 3am this morning, woke me up and i realised i was dreaming about the pain i was actually in, got Cam into my bed and realised this, got up went to toilet and pain was still there, now it had changed to Braxton Hicks, but painful ones, getting lower back pains, ligament pain and BH's was not nice, after getting worried i "timed" them, then realised that standing actually eased them, so stood and then took some panadol, waited for that to kick in and at about 4.30am i decided i couldnt keep my eyes open and went to bed,was getting a fe bh's but not as bad and they eased, ive woken today with a little back ache, what feels like a cold but better then i was last night.......lets see what today brings, both times yesterday/this morning i was only min away from calling midwife but they died off when i gave my "cut off" time....



Was this just my body playing tricks or was it a sign of the real thing (pre-labour)?? Should i get checked out? or just take it easy and see what the day brings and take it from there?

I can't say what it was exactly, but if you're worried, it's always best to get these things checked
