contractions.

Should I start timing when I feel the back pain or ab pain? I'm so uncertain. & they're 5 min apart. Being a FTM is so hard.

I only had pain in my back, some women only get it in their abs. Whenever you start to feel any tightening/uncomfortable pain is start timing them

They should be 3-5 minutes apart and lasting a minute long. Once your contractions are like that call l&d and go in
