Prodormal labor? real thing? gah!  

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
You'd think having a baby before I'd know the difference. But with my son I had back labor and it was more like "OMG MY BABY IS COMING OUT OF MY BUTT" kind of labor.

Last night I started having radiating, menstral cramping pain that also echoed around my back pretty regularly (like, every 3-4 minutes). I was able to sleep for a few hours, but woke up because of the pain for about an hour, then fell asleep again. It's back this morning. I don't have any bloody show, but more brownish mucousy discharge. Is this it?! Or do you think I have a few more days of this. With my son I had prodormal labor for about 5 days before real labor kicked in.

Bah, I wish my water would break or something so I'd know definitively! I'm 38w 3d.

I saw in another thread you said you were going for a long walk. Good idea. And like everyone says, if baby is going to take a while, this is just less work for your body to do later. Good luck, Mama!
