Contractions

[jadamommy]

So what exactly will a contraction feel like? Like not a Braxton Hicks one but a real one is it like pain in your tummy?

Yeah, mine have been like Braxton hicks ones, but more like a period cramp. And I get them in my lower back too.

Yeah theyre the same feeling as BH EXCEPT they HURT lol. Youll definitely feel the pain.

For me its the same tightening as a braxton hick contraction but it hurts! I'm 34w+6 and been having actual ones for near enough a week here and there.. They feel like a bad period to me so very irritable
