Contractions galore!

I'm 34+4. So last night my husband and I had sex for the first time in almost three weeks. I did not orgasm :(, however, shortly after, I statrted having crazy contractions! I think I had about 15 of them in about 40 minutes! I was soooo scared! My husband was at work a half an hour away and my 13 year old brother is here for a visit and I had a 4 year old in bed sleeping. The baby's room is all set up but is a mess because of the painting that isn't finished and the house was messy and I'm just not completely prepared. So those contractions really threw me for a loop. I proceeded to drink a crap load of water and laid on my left side in my bed and they eventually went away. This happen to anyone else? I'm sorry for such a long post!

Yes. Sex brings on the contractions and sometimes labor if your are far enough along. With my first baby, I went to the hospital every time that happened. And they asked did I have sex, the answer was always yes, and they always sent me home after a few hours of monitoring lol
