I had pain the day before across the top of my belly. I thought bub had moved into a weird position and was just waiting it out until she moved again. I was told two days before that that my cervix wasn't yet in the correct position and that this baby wasn't arriving anytime soon. I had a long shower and went to bed, only to wake up at around 2 with stronger pain but again across the top of my belly. We rang the hospital, they confirmed that it didn't sound like labour, but to go in and be checked out. On the drive to the hospital, we realised that the pains were coming and going, and were 4-5 minutes apart. We got to the hospital and they took one look at me staggering in and said, yep, you're in labour.
