Im posting this in here casue im 40+ weeks, but i dont really think its pre-labour pains or anything like that.....Im actually 40+4 weeks and im getting these weird pains. they come in waves about ever ten minutes....BUT.... the pain is right under my boobs, like along the very very top of my bump and round my shoulder blades.....had them most the evening last night, not while i was in bed but they started again this morning!
Any ideas???
nope, but my labour pains only felt like tight undies!!!
hope this is it for you!!!! :goodluck:
I think it is labour related with one of my labored my whole body ached and I would get all tingly but it hurt...
If it's coming and going I really think it may be the start..
Try resting cause if it is you'll need it!!
Gl babe I hope it's the beginning to meeting your gorgeous baby :)

mines a tight bra then :lol::
i do keep getting these weird tingly...i can only describe them as 'rushes'....feels like a big release of hormones...its quite nice actually,shame they dont come at the same time as the wierd aches. thanks.:
In my labour with Phoebe my pains radiated down the fronts of my legs. By that stage I was in established labour though, not that I realised that was the case as the cx were so short in duration.
I reckon it's prelabour at least, especially if the pains are coming in waves!
At least you know that at 40+4 whatever weird pains you're experiencing, the birth of your little one REALLY isn't far away!
All the best :)
Thanks, i guess your right...just never heard of it being up there!! what can i say, im special :):
I don't know beckoes! But just wanted to wish you all the best!! How exciting!! :leap:
oooh it sounds like there's movement at the station Bec... wishing you all the best, can't wait to see the BA xx
Thanks ladies, they have naturally stopped now, but they came and went most of yesterday evening so we will see how today goes! off to walk up and down our driveway (which is quite a hill) :)
as a suggestion Beckoes don't walk to try to bring on your labour. If labour for some reason lasts a long time then you will want all of your energy. If it is going to come then it will and at least you will have more energy to greet you little one. Trying to force your body over that edge could just end up costing you the strength you need at some later point. whether that be in labour or after. Just a suggestion. Do what your body wants tho. If you feel like sitting down and chilling, don't walk out of a misguided sense that that is what you are "supposed" to do when you are in labour. Just do what feels right. If walking makes you feel happy then do that too :)
All sounds very exciting btw. I will be looking out for your announcement :)
LOL, definitely special. I hadn't heard of it up there either but I hadn't heard of it in your legs until I felt it myself :):
Enjoy your walk! Have you got a fitball to bounce on? Could be just as good and a bit more relaxing.
we're both special then! :rofl: i do have a fit ball snacks! been bouncing away for a few days. its much more comfortable than the chairs too!:

I did walk up the driveway, but only to take the rubbish to the bins...then i had a two hour sleep :) which was lovely!! thanks Bella. :):

LOL. Special indeed.
I too found the fitball awesome :) I got up and bounced the couple of nights prior to P's birth and watched the pink kit DVD. Was a good combo, LOL!
double. Sorry.
Actually I have heard that it can start at the top of your bump and gradually work its way down. I've only read it in books though, so who knows? *shruggs*
It's exciting nonetheless that this could be the start of things!
My labour pains began at the top of my belly. I didn't feel anything below at all in the early stages. I started getting contractions about 18 hours after the first up the top pain!
well, i have had a few more like that, but nothing like the other day. A few dull cramps and im super grumpy and tired tonight. 41 weeks tomorrow. *twiddles thumbs impatiently*
I was super grumpy the day before I went into labour with DS3. I was 9 days over by that point though so anyone would be grumpy lol.
Bit late on this, definitely the start of things. I do know people who's early labour felt the same as you describe. It happens in weird and wonderful ways, different for everyone. My early contractions felt like I was going to wet myself.
Go about you night and day as you usually would, rest if you can though, you'll need the energy. I'm thinking things are going to get started in the next few days.
Goodluck xx
Thinking of you hun..... soooo can't wait for your BA :D
