Is this it?

Hey girls, I’ve had a lot of clear discharge today and have had on off cramps. I just had to go the toilet really quick and had diarrhoea and then came downstairs, sat on the sofa and tried to stand up and had this pressure like pain in my vagina and back. Is this a contraction? It’s been 20 minutes since and I’ve just had waves of backache and tightenings. Someone tell me what’s happening please 🫣 x

Just monitor it for the next few hours. Iv been having contractions labour pains and severe pressure for about 2 weeks now but it comes to a stop which is very frustrating.

@Jenna so hard to know when it’s the real thing! I’ve not had pain like this before though so I’ve taken some paracetamol and I’ll see what happens x

Could well be the start!! My early contractions felt like I was really constipated 😂 and I had horrid lower back pain and pressure down below during them too. If they’re the real thing there’s no mistaking them once they really start. Good luck!!! Xxx

@Dawn did it feel like you were constipated constantly or periodically?

Errrrm periodically. Like a diarrhea cramp. Xx

@Dawn oh my god this is what I feel like today all day. I'm in the same boat right now. Everything feels so different today and so much more painful but no idea what it is 😣

Eeeeeek!! Well make sure you have a good dinner and try to get a solid sleep. Easier said than done but relax - labour will come! I was so impatient but it is all so worth it when baby arrives. Best of luck!!!! Xx
