im 35 weeks pregnant.since yesterday ive been having contractions,these are not bh, there painfull and its in my belly and my back.but there not regualer.i was getting maybe one or two an hour.during the night i woke up 4 times,my belly was rock hard,the pain was so bad (in my back also) that i couldnt even wake up dh,i couldnt talk or move untill it passed.and they last more than a minet,feels like minets im not sure.. i had all my kids with no pain relief so i know a real contraction,and i actually tought i was going to have the baby there on the bed. today there not as bad as last night, very irregualar,i went an hour with nothing,then anouther hour with three of them.. some of them i was in that much pain that i could not change position to see if it went. some of them i walked around to see if it stopped and it didnt.. so i would realy compare this to labour, the only thing is i know baby is in position,but i dont feel as if hes right there,if u know what i mean.. iv also had constant diarreah this 2 weeks.. plz if u have had this or any suggestions for me...  i realy dont want to go the labour ward unless completely necessary as i hate the way they make u feel for going in.. thanks ladies

when are u due? i think a bloody show means your on your way defo!!  i dont get that until just before delivery.. my labour is always in my back right until the actual delivery,then i get a show and water breaks and baby comes within 5 mins of that!

I'm having the exact same contractions! but im also having some bloody show. Chances are, if they don't get regular they are probably just early ones and won't put you on labor. But remember if you get one every 5 minutes, go to the hospital! I keep counting mine (they hurt a LOT) but they are still very irregular :-( Good luck!

yes im drinking lots of water now.it does feel like labour but i dont feel as if the babys head is right there, i wounder does that mean it cant be labour. can u be in labour if the head is not pushing right down?  thanks for your reply.il try have a lie down and see what happens. i am having closer contractions now but there not as bad,i wouldnt notice some of them exept the pain that i get in my back with them,its like my back is contracting!!

Drink a ton of water, then pee (so you don't have to get up so soon)  and lay on your left side.. if you still continue to get them an hour after doing that call your dr... it could be the real thing and with this not being your first you could go faster than you did with the others... Best of luck...
