What do contractions feel like I'm not sure if I'm feeling them or just cramps . Sorry if I sound stupid I'm a first time mom

Contractions feel like menstrual cramps. They will get more intense and closer with time. If you're having contractions that are 5 minutes apart and last for at least an hour,call your Dr or head to the hospital.

Don't say ur sorry. Your a first time mom. A first time mom should have like a million questions. If your having pain u shouldnt most definitely see your doctor to find out Exactly what's going on. It could b your insides growing and stretching making room for the baby, it could b a miscarriage or a million other things. A miscarriage hurts tremendously but so can growing and stretching of your insides, SD, ibs and even gas pain. It's never easy to tell for sure what it is. I've been pregnant 6 times and I've had 3 children. Every pregnancy is different and not all women's bodies handle pregnancy exactly the same. See your Dr you'll feel much better if u do cause good or bad at least your aware of what's going on at all times. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Good luck on your journe!
