I am 41 weeks gone. Last night I went to bed and slept for about an hour before being worken by what I thought were early labour pains. Tried to sleep through but they were actually very painful so got up about half one. Had a bath and started to monitor what was going on and these contraction type pains were coming every 10 minutes and lasting about 15=20 seconds.
I really thought this was it. More intense than the period type starting cramps that many people talk about. So much that they actually took my breath away and I was scared how I would get on in established labour!
Hot tired about half four so decided to try and sleep. Have now just woken although was aware of cramps since then have basically just woken to nothing!
Any suggestions? Could it have been baby engaging?
