I'd give your doc a call if you even suspect they are the real thing mama because you're too early! Good luck!

Thanks ladies. I thought they were braxton Hicks but these are kind of painful. I couldn't get off the couch or walk standing up straight yesterday when I was having them.  This is my third baby but I've never went into labor on my own or experienced braxton Hicks before this one. Kind of freaks me out! I guess I'll be making sure my bags are packed just in case.

Just keep an eye on them. Sometimes braxton hicks can be mistaken for true contractions. As long as they're not getting progressively worse you are ok. Definitely bring it up to your Dr.
