is this labour? :(

[dze]

i am 41 weeks today, and getting induced on the 16th, and yesterday i had my second sweep from the midwife.

but today ive been feeling uncofmfortable all day. ive been having alot of cramps in my belly and ALOT of painful pressure down in my bottom.
it feels like i need to push, and that i really need to let gas and poop out, but when i sit on the toilet its so painful, and nothing comes out. then the pain will dissapear. and come back again.

im also experiencing alot of lower back pain. it can be there for ages, and other times itll just come and go.

im also loosing loadsss of discharge today and yesterday, so im taking it that its my mucus plug.

also pain in my cervix i think? sorta like when baby scrapes the cervix

what is this i am experiencing? please help
xx
