Real contractions are usually ones that stop you in your tracks lol...they're painful and it does make u wanna hold your breathe.
Thanks. That's what I thought people were describing, just wasn't sure :)
I read that pre labor (a little different than bh contractions) can start a week or more before real labor. It said they may be regular but change in intensity and will often go away for similar reasons to bh contractions. I has cramping ever 7 min one night and contractions every 5 another night both times lasting more than an hour then just quit!
Bummer oct22! R u due the 22?? So close! I'm due the 26th. I'd love him to make it till his EDD but not long after! Hahah
Bh feels like light period cramps. Real contractions hurt so bad you can't move or think they burn and sting and I swear it feels like you're dying.. well mine did anyway lol
With my first, my water broke on the first day of my 39th week, and I was slowly leaking. It didn't start hurting until they gave me stuff to I guess induce me. Those contractions will eventually stop you from doing everything! I think I kept blacking out from the pain. 8/9hrs later they finally gave me an epidural.
I'm 39 wks and i had prelabor last night. Really strong tightening that hurt. Felt like period cramps but over my whole stomach. They were every couple minutes or so. I was about to go to the hospital but then they started getting weak and far apart and evwntually stopped. Then this morning i lost my mucus plug. I hope she comes soon!
