I heard that some babies become extra active a couple days before labour... hopefully that's what is happening to you!

That's a pain! Try having a hot shower? I just had one to help my back pain and it didn't do that but it got my little guy to relax a little. Are you feeling any more contractions yet?

I didn't get any. Just the cramping from the sweep. They just started back up today and I lost my mucas today. If you walk a bunch it should bring them on. That's what jump started mine again. How was the grad?

Same here I have 6 days to go and everyday that goes by, I feel worse because it's a higher chance I'm gonna go over , my doctor said she'll induce me if I don't go in by 41 and a half weeks but that seems like forever! ): lol
