My contractions started off about 7 minutes apart I guess, and no, they broke my waters for me in the hospital.

That's how my labour started, back ache and then it'd come round to under my belly. Good luck!

You should get an exersize ball and bounce on it it makes me feel so much better! I've always had braxton hicks contraction and they never hurt and they were consistent with dehydration, but now I drink so much water and they hurt now like period cramps, and every now and then I feel like just an incredible pain in my lower stomach. I hope this means baby is coming soon because I am soooo done :)

I'm officially 37 weeks today also and the baby just dropped today! The only difference I noticed is that my stomach is like sinking lower, like it used to be boobs then baby, but now it's boobs then ribs then baby, if that makes sense
