Ladies what did early labour feel like for you? I've been having these pains on and off since Sunday…

I have the same so following this post :) xx

@holliesinead, for me, I got a sweep at 40+2 and was 1cm dilated but cervix was still quite far back. Lost a little plug but nothing to get excited about. Had an appointment for 42+2 but that's when I gave birth anyway. Anyway, at 42+1, at around 12pm, I had horrific stomach cramps, like I had the runs, then I ran to the toilet and it was like a tap, I couldn't stop it. This went on for around an hour 2 hours, that was my clear out (that's supposed to be classed as early labour) but had no significant pain, just little twinges and cramps here and there. Went to bed, the next morning I had 2 small brown blobs on my knickers, thought nothing of it and carried on with my day. At 3pm, I felt "odd" down there, like sticky and wet - I had lost my plug! And 2 hours later, contractions started. I never really experienced early labour so hope someone can be more help but hopefully you have an idea of what to look out for! Good luck xx

41weeks, not 42+1 haha! Xx

Period cramps every now and again a few hours after my waters broke Xx

@beccastirlingx, @winterbaby95 did either you of you have the pain feeling of when your abou to come on your period or feel a dragging /pulling sensation in your noo? That's what I have at the moment it's starting to get stronger and more painful but no waters or anything else gone yet xx

@holliesinead, I had that the last few weeks Hun, keep an eye out for tightening around the hood back and lower stomach, that's when I knew it was labour xx

I got it a lot in the two weeks leading up . Would be uncomfy ... And then ease off come back etc x
