Hi. First time mum.

Hi I'm 39+2 and past few days I've been getting really tight cramping across my bump and pain in my pelvis and down inside of my thighs . Also have lower back pain and now and again an upset stomach. I've been getting more discharge than usual as well but no blood like a plug or anything ( sorry) Just want to know if this is early labour or if it's just what happens when ur this far on? Any advice would be appreciated

It could be early labour but it could also braxton hicks, both expected at this time. If the cramps become more often and severe then it's probably labour.

It all sounds really normal hun. The pains are your body getting ready for Labour. Baby has little room to move now so babies movements can feel painful sometimes. I don't think you will have long to wait hun. X

It's hard to tell. When I showed signs I tried to keep walking around and it seemed to kick start my labour off. To me.it sounds like your body is definetly getting ready so defo could be soon!! Good luck with everything hope all goes well !
