early labor..

So is it true that I'm at risk of an early labor..
When I have sex I have a very sharp pain in my stomach like I have been running, and my stomach gets really hard like contractions... a different # of people say I might go into labor early.. I'm 21 weeks now..

Only your doc knows if you are high risk based on your health history, we wouldnt know that. I suggest asking your OB that question. I am high risk and am not allowed to exercise or even have an orgasm, but my situation is a rare one. Most women can safely have sex their entire pregnancy without risking pre term labor

But my Dr said not to worry about it unless the contractions start to be like 10 minutes apart it goes away for me eventually
