contractions?!?!

How can a contraction feel like? I know its different for everybody and the pain I have been having I am not all to sure that is what it is. Has anyone ever had a contraction feel more like a low stabbing sharp pain following a low back pain. Im not feeling much tightness. And also whrn you are having a contraction does the baby tend to move during it? Please let me know!

Mine felt like bad gas pains and constipation with my second, so I didn't even know I was in labor.  With my first, my water broke, so I didn't get contractions until I was already at the hospital, and I don't remember what they felt like.  Wondering if the third will be completely different or like one of my first two.

Real ones feel like horrible period cramps they become worse and worse. If ita a dull pain on back it could be braxton.
