I lost abit of my mucus plug yesterday and this morning I had a bloody show since taking epo on Wednesday. It's 6:20am so I'm trying to go back to sleep and get some rest just in case I turns into labour day. I'm getting some very mild stomach achy pains but nothing unbearable (if my labour could be like this I'd definately take it :thumbup

When I do get up this morning, I don't know whether I should go shopping to get things started or is better to rest up? I don't want to prolong things as it could still be weeks away right? When I don't want to exhaust myself, it could be hours away!

I wonder if it would be a good idea to insert another epo capsule?

I woke up an hour ago and have been getting cramps, stronger than period pain but not unbearable - they build up then tail off. I'm not timing them because I don't want to get my hopes up! I'd say take things easy and don't over do it just in case but Def go shopping if you feel up to it! X

Sounds promising, good luck!

My 'pains' are more constant not coming and going like contractions.

I'm going to try and get a bit more rest this morning.

If you're just crampy not having contractions I'd rest, for a while at least. Then go for a walk and see if they get going

No more cramping

Just abit of spotting brown here and there. Pregnancy is the most unpredictable experience ever!

Sounds as though You're on your way, have a restful day and check you have some slow release energy foods in at home and your hospital bag.
My labour started on a Friday early evening and baby only arrived Sunday afternoon. I spent Friday and Saturday nights in labour listening to others in my ward in labour so didn't get any sleep. So if I had the choice, I would sleep today as if things happen tonight you'll not get any sleep. Good luck
