Yeah everyone has been telling me you will know when you are having contractions!
Hi there. Well, I'll be honest. Those contractions are pretty unmistakable. And when birth gets near . . . it hurts!! I thought I had a high pain tolerance too but found that this was not really the case! I had to have an epidural to get through it!! They start out like rhythmic tightening but then they get painful. Ever have a really super bad stomach bug that causes pains? it's kind of like that. I think you'll feel them hon. I don't think you'll need to worry about that. :>) Good luck with everything!
