39 + 2

Im 39 + 2 and just so ready to meet my little one. Iv have horrible back pain since yesterday evening, i cried myself to sleep in pain last night. I would try anything to get him out at this stage. Iv had a really spicy curry a bit ago ( my mouths on fire), went for an hour long walk, just about to have a hot bath now and then going to use my boyfriend later. Fingers cossed something will help, wish me luck ladies..:)

I tired everything for 10 days, and the Tuesday evening before my son was born (40+3) I was stuck in the barn yard during a horrible thunderstorm and I went into labor that night. My dad says it was the lightening and scared him out. Lol.

Sounds like you may be getting close though! When I was in labor I never had "normal" contractions until after they broke my water. I had REALLY intense back pain, like doubled over crying had to sleep in a tub of water kind of pain. Called my doc and she said it wasn't labor, I'd know what contractions feel like because they go from back to belly. Well, thank God I trusted my instincts and went to the hospital the next day because I WAS in labor and contracting every 3-5 min!! I was already to 5cm :) Turns out baby was posterior causing the back labor :(

Good luck! I'm due in 15 days and I can't wait anymore! In so much pain sleeping is so uncomfortable. I went to the doctor and no signs of baby coming earlier so disappointing
