I had what I think were to contractions yesterday evening. The first one was very extreme, I was sitting at dinner and my stomach started to tighten up, and a very intense pain started. I couldn't even move! Everything hurt so bad, my boyfriend tried to get me to stand up but I couldn't. It only lasted for about 2 mins, then later in the car I had the same feeling again but not as intense. Are these contractions?!?
