When do you call?

Generally the advice is when they are every 5 minutes and lasting at least a minute each and are so painful they stop you doing what you’re doing and you have to breathe through them but if you’re worried or want advice then phone anytime 😊
The blanket advice is when you are getting 3 contractions within a 10 minute period, that last 45sec+ and you are having to breathe through them ❤️ However, there is absolutely no harm in ringing up triage now and letting them know, and then they can advise on a case to case basis as to whether you should just head up now anyway! ❤️
Thank you! @Ellie-May I called and that’s exactly what she said. Agreed to stay home for a little while longer and try to manage the pain at home! Trying to do that and not wake the husband is an effort🤣
@incog No Worries! Absolutely try and stay home for as long as you are comfortable with! Get as much rest as you can, I know it’s very hard! If you haven’t already, warm baths are supposed to be amazing for the pains. It sounds like you are going to meet baby soon! Congratulations ❤️
After getting crumps, I was in labor after 10h. Just call them now. And go. 🙏
