contractions

Ladies what do contractions feel like? Like where do you feel them? This is my second baby but with my first I had no contractions due to me having a c section. Thank you

My Ob said that pressure is nerves being compressed. I've had the same pressure too. The closer I get to my due date the more constant it becomes.

For me they feel like the worst menstrual cramps of my life! I feel them in my back, butt, belly, and legs. And these have only been the "warm up" contractions.... Braxton Hicks. So worried about hardcore labor now....

Hmm. Mine just left like a pain/shoke on my uterus. It hurt for like 1-2 mins

I actually just got off the phone with my on call OB. I thought I might be starting contractions. She told me that when there is a true contraction the top of your uterus is like pushing on a brick wall. They start off like menstrual cramping and get worse and closer together as they go
