Aa
first being a mom 37 weeks and 6 days .
So im really nervous for labor and i wanted to know that , if its true that labor contractions could happen any time now , is it true ? And how do real labor contractions feel like ?
Wow, what an encouraging comment -_-
Labor is intense. It is strong and it is painful but it is not the end of the world. It is exhausting but it is tolerable and it is worth every minute. I am very much looking forward to having my second med-free delivery in June or early July. I never cried or screamed while laboring with my first, a nine pound 22.5" baby boy. Focus and a good support system are key.
At nearly 38 weeks the chances are that you've still got a couple weeks to go since first timers usually go past the 40 week mark - but yes, the time is coming soon! Trust yourself, trust your body. Your body knows what to do and you can get through it - and when you do, you'll get the best prize in the whole world for finishing the job! Remind yourself that women have been doing this since the dawn of humanity and if they can do it you can do it. It's the hardest you'll ever work in one day - but you can do it. Best of luck!

Oh man I'm sorry but it's horrible pain that nothing will ever compare to the rest of your life. Back labor is even worse! You get sharp pain that shoots from the top of your stomach down into your vagina and your belly tightens the muscles do you can see it. Back labor is excruciatingly worse than front labor. You just want to die. I cried and screamed it was so bad. Oh yeah I have been there 3 times already and pregnant with my 4th and I'm dreading it. Wish you luck.
