Contractions

I’m pretty sure I’m contracting they are about 10mins apart at the moment last 30/40 secs. I am booked in for an elective C-section on Tuesday. I have said if she was to come before this date I will try and labour. My waters have not broke so I guess it could be a while still right… second pregnancy and tbh I have had no signs at all that she will try and come earlier. Could be false contraction’s? Woke up about 3am and have had them on and off every 10mins so far. Do I just keep assessing or contact triage?

My midwife told me when you can’t talk through contractions that’s when you should phone up. Good luck ❤️

I’ll keep holding on I mean I haven’t even woke my partner yet. I’m thinking what if stops and is false. Although it’s painful they are bareable for now.

Wishing you the best 🫶🏼

I had no symptoms either until I had contractions 10 mins apart. I wasn’t in pain until a few hours before I gave birth. I only went to the hospital cos my contractions were 4-5 mins apart but I wasn’t really in much pain. Download a contractions app :)

Wait as long as you can as they’re likely to send you home in early labour especially if your water hasn’t gone. I’ve been contracting for 5 hours now and in a similar position to you but this happened to me in my last pregnancy except my water had broken and they just sent me back home 🙈. I hope all goes well for you and this is the real deal, good luck 😉 🩷

My midwife recommends going to hospital when you have 3 contractions in 10 minutes / when they’re unbearable x

Please focus more on the time between contractions and not by how much pain you are in... 😬 I was in hospital with no pain & they refused to send me home. My contractions were so close and I dilated quickly. I wasn’t even in pain until active labour. I hope everything goes smoothly for you! 🥰🫶🏽🤍

Update.. I’m so glad I went… I got to the hospital at half 7 and was on the monitor for movements and checked half 9 was 2cm told to go home or walk about see how my pain felt I stayed as I couldn’t cope well ended up having my daughter at 1.30pm after begging them to recheck me at 12 as it was unbearable the pain I felt.

Congratulations!!
