feel stupid for asking but

About an hr ago my dull low achey contractions seemed to stop and suddenly I have really intense cramping in my abdomen that sometimes goes down my back or into my pelvis. Its still crampy and really doesnt ease up, but it goes into moments of intensity that seem unbearable (like the worst gassy pains you could imagine) and it lasts up to a minute and half at a time before easing back into just the less painful cramp. Are these contractions? I know theres different kinds, but I dont really feel them low unless it radiates there.

Oh man

[LadyBeeley]

False alarm :-/  after 2 1/2hrs my contractions lost intensity.  But I was told the real deal is coming right around the corner

[kennimae]

Yeah I would definitely go in .. good luck momma keep us updated :)

[LadyBeeley]

Dang. Ok I think we are going to the hospital to be safe. Either way ive gone my whole pregnancy without really any kind of pain and now its unbearable.

[kennimae]

I am not sure because my water broke with my first and had to be put on pitocin and I neer experienced any contractions leading up to except for 2.

[LadyBeeley]

Can it really change that quick?

[kennimae]

If they are that close and last I think they say for an hour then time to go in.

[LadyBeeley]

My stomach is basically staying hard now

[LadyBeeley]

Sometimes a little more than 3min but never over 5

I would try and time them, it sounds like contractions. .
good luck!

[kennimae]

Sounds like it to me. Are you able to time them?
