Constant BH contractions?

[Momofthreecrazykids]

I know I'm not in complete labor right now, seeing tomorrow I'll be 19 weeks...

But for the past week, I've been getting Non-stop contractions all the way up to my ribs and I get SO sleepy after having one.  I've been getting them every 20-30 minutes for 30 seconds to a minute long.  I can't call out on my phone because our phone got shut off yesterday and I'm NERVOUS!!  I wrote my doctors' online HOPING for a miracle that they would call me, but it said it could take up to 72 hours before someone contacts back!!  OMG!!

I was wondering if anyone else it having this HORRIBLE problem?  Like I said, for a week straight (been ignoring them) but today is different.....

Thanks for reading...

I'm still getting them,but not as consistant as they were that one day.  I know I've been pregnant 2 other times, and I know what contactions feel like....

Fay~Sounds like you did have contractions Honey!! If they got all way into your back, those aren't BH, those are the real deal.  I hope you're feeling better!!

Sadiesmommy~ I know :(  I should of went, but my husband had this STUPID bowling thing he does and was freaking more concerned about that then me.  Kinda pissed me off when he was telling me I do this with every pregnancy.  The first time I did it with my son, I had bloody show that morning and was contracting SO MUCH throughoutthe day, I went to the hospital. I was in Labor (3 days before due date) and they sent me home after 3 hours because I was no more then 3CM dialated.  With my girls, I was 34 weeks and was in Pre-term labor!!! So I think I have a reason to panic, right?  Men seriously don't understand.  

These contractions  are all the way into my ribs, gets hard for me to breath and I get EXTREMELY tired after each one. It's going on 10 days straight now...but not so much as that one day...I HATE talking to my doctor because he seriously doesn't seem conserned about anything I tell him...I'm scared to switch because he might be the one that ends up delivering...LOL  I've seen him for the past 3 1/2 years, but he's different...

if they told you to go to the ER you should. Maybe they just want to monitor the baby for awhile to make sure it is tolerating everything okay!!

i really hope it's not contractions...it happened to me on my birthday and it it was all the way to my back ..but they told me i wasnt contracting it was soo constant it got me scared i still have them at times but they told me things were stretching and thats all (i only stayed there for 40 min) ...they also told me to watch any blood or water which indicates things arent going well...i really hope you and the baby will be just fine xx

They got down to every 13-15 minutes, lasting 39-52 seconds each!!  We called the doctor from our cell phone and they toldme to head to the ER....but what are they going to do, have me sitthere in the waiting room and contract longer??  They ended up easing ALITTLE, but they haven't gone away yet...now I'm going on 8 days straight....but why I am contracting like this at JUST 19 weeks???

Make sure you are drinking lots and lots of water. As long as they are not painful I would think that you are okay but you may want to use your neighbors phone to call your doc and make sure they don't want to see you!!
