January Jellybeans 2013!...

Sassy - I would maybe give you OB a call and explain or go to the ER, the pain domes horrendous and I think they need to know so they can just check all is ok.

Mammaspath - amazing. You look gorgeous

Well, I think this is starting to happen. It's 5am here and I've woken up and keep getting contractions in my lower back, about every ten or so minutes apart at the moment, although some times longer, lasting about 30/40 seconds although I haven't started to time them yet. It's all in my back, no belly at all, and boy are the intense! I dread to think what they're going to be like at full steam, where's that epidural??? They build and then come down but feel like I really need a BM. Ummm what do you ladies think? I wonder if he is still back to back???
 
Sounds promising Sonia I hope it starts tonight can't wait for another update :)
 
I think so, I didn't want to wake DH up as it could be hours yet but they are so intense it's unreal. I'm going to get up now as feeling really sick and see if being upright lessens the pain.

Maybe you should go ahead and start timing them! Could also try a nice warm shower. I remember with DD when mine started, I took a shower to help me focus on timing to see if it was the real thing.
 
Sonia, hope this is it, good luck!!!

Mammaspath you look stunning!

Congrats on your engagement Kaiecee, so exciting!

Thanks for all the advice re settling baby-Blossom, will keep you posted on my progress!

Hope everyone else is doing well xx
 
Sonia
Maybe a warm bath would help that helped me with my first :)
 
Sounds like things are happening Sonia! Move around and if they keep up they are definitely the real thing and time them as Sassy suggested. Exciting!

SOunds like things are moving right along for you! With my last one the first few contractions had me running to the bathroom because I felt like I really needed to have a BM. Fingers crossed for you!
 
Thanks ladies, have started to time them and about 7 / 9 mins apart, they are now spreading around to the front, lower uterus lasting about 50 / 60 seconds.
 
Just woke him up and we're getting ready, well between contractions, toilet trips and being sick!
 
Omg ur not lucky to be sick and having contractions update us as things go good luck :)
 
How exciting! Good luck Sonia - hope everything goes well and you have your baby soon. Can't wait for updates. X
 
OH and I chose a name for our boy months ago and have been using the name but we've changed our minds to my first and OH is prepared to reconsider a name I originally loved when we first found out we were expecting. We've agreed now to wait until he's born and make a final choice then. I was getting really used to the name we'd chosen so it's odd to change our minds now but if I get the chance to use my first choice instead of second I'm thrilled!
