Ok so im experiencing contractions since about 6 in the evening yesterday... I went to bed at 2 with really painful contractions, they were about  3-5 min apart... Feel asleep and woke up at 4 didnt feel any pain anymore, after a couole of minutes i started feeling my contractions again, but they feel like at the beginning a little pain ful bit nothing i cant handle.... Am i in actual labor or not.? Im getting frustrated...

I would suggest going ahead and going to the hospital. They will take care of you. Especially if you've done the tylenol and done the showers.

Just take it easy and when they happen just stay relaxed n breath

Took 2 hot baths, and contractions arent going away.. Im going walking soon.

Try a shower my contractions weren't frequent till about hour 12 or so they have to be 4 mins apart last for a minute and be consistent for an hour you'll know when it gets to be that time trust me. Walk around n just try n relax eventually they don't stop coming.

If the timing of 3-5 mins is consistant and NOT changing then yes you are in labor an need to go to your hospital, but before doing that. Take a shower to help relax you and take some tylenol. If you are TRUELY in labor tylenol WILL NOT help. That is what the doctor told me to do when I had my son. And an hour after taking tylenol I went to the hospital cause the pain never left and I had my baby boy 4 hours later.
