hi im 32 weeks and 3 days pregnant with my second child and lost alot of mucus on friday went to go ring community midwifes..whilst walking down stair and finding my papers realised i was wet down below and they said sometimes it can happen when you have pelvic girdle pain..as you can sometimes go numb down below and to put a maternity pad on if it is sodden then go into them..but all weekend i have had little pains and alot of back pains lower back and going half way up my back..its hurting and im aching down below very sore when im sitting having to stand up or change position alot im feeling like i need the toilet alot but nothing happening maybe a little trickle..im confused about my due date and worrying cos at our last scan they said we was measuring 4 weeks ahead..so i dont know if these pains are a good thing or not..anyone else had the same problems.
my girlfriend is having similar symptons (back ache, tightening pains etc) but she has been to hospital earlier today and the doctor said she wasn't in slow labour but she is still layed up in bed with the same symptons... any suggestions ?

I spent a lot of time bouncing on a gym ball. Did wonders for the pain and I had my girl at 38 + 4, 8 hours after my show. I'm sure it helped get her down there and ready. Other than that, long walks are supposed to help. Or u could try acupuncture or reflexology, I've read that can bring on labour too x
I am 37 weeks and 5 days. I lost my mucous on Wednesday and have been having b/h faithfully. However, this morning I woke up with severe lower back pain and menstrual cramping. I started having contractions around 9 a.m. and had them every 5-7 minutes and the lasted 40-75 seconds. I had them like till 1 p.m. and then everything stopped. No back pain or cramping. Can u tell me if I am in slow labor?
