I was induced so it made them worse I think but I got to only 2cm and for me I described it as starting as the worst period pains you can imagine where you wanna roll over@on the floor and get all sweaty to feeling your insides are on fire and being twisted but I have a low pain threshold anyway so you may sail through them like a trooper xx

@zoeelaw, I don't even really take notice when I get them anymore 😂 it all stops after a while anyway xx

it increases as labour progresses hun just time them ect you'll feel the tightness as well xxx @zoeelaw

I don't know if it's just from the sweep @firsttimemummy21 or if it is anything. Just getting a painful one every so often. Just going to see how it goes. Knowing my luck it'll be nothing lol xx

@street29 I had a sweep today and obviously from the sweep you can get period pains. But every so often it can be a painful one. Probably will be nothing lol xx

It's different for everyone but I've been getting them on and off for weeks and for me it's like a bad period cramp but also in my back and hips and like a tight feeling as well xx

very bad period pains 😣 x
