I’m 38+4 and the past 12 hours I’ve been having period like cramps off and on. Sometimes they are consistent, then maybe goes away for an hour, sometimes just a long mild cramp, sometimes only a few seconds long. Called the midwives and they said it’s normal and if they get more painful or more consistent to call back but this part could last days/weeks until real labour started. Might be interesting to point out this all started about ten minutes after I broke my toe last night (I didn’t fall, I’m fine) so idk if like that stress brought this all on.

Did anyone have this type of cramping for days before real labour started?
