Avatar f tn 4-6 or more regular contractions in an hour are probably more than by contractions. If you've had regular contractions for 5 hours you may want to go get checked out tonight and not wait.

Avatar f tn So i came to the hospital cause i started bleeding and i was 1dilated i been here since 6 they monitor me and i was still 1cm dilated soo they gave me a medicine to stop my contractions is that ok?
Avatar f tn My contractions were very stop and go.sometimes you need pitocine to keep it going.my labor would have lasted for days.i went to hospital yesterday at 9 with stop and go contractions and had my son at 2:09pm.he was 9lbs 11oz.the only reason I had him is because I got relaxed with epideral and the broke my water and get me pitocine. Otherwise I would have been laboring for days and probably resulting in a csection .I was already laboring for 3 days before I went in start stop start stop.
Avatar f tn 35 weeks having constant contractions that are sporadic. Sometime 5mins apart sometimes 3 sometimes 6. Went to the hospital last night and said I am contracting and the babies head is low but I am only 1 cm dilated. This is my second pregnancy but don't remember feeling contractions this early with my daughter. Has anyone had contractions like this and delivered a few days or so later?
5603486 tn?1372218164 So my braxton hicks contractions have been going on for 3 or 4 days... every like hour or 2... will this stop anytime soon...
3178444 tn?1348441829 I went in to my 39week appt this morning at 9 and I started having contractions at 11 that has pretty much turned into what feels like a nonstop contraction.. It's even hard to walk.. I called the doc and they said my cervix is probably irritated and to go ahead and go home (1hr away) if they turn into distinguishable contractions that go every 5 min for an hour then to head back..

Avatar f tn Lol a week before I was due I woke up to really bad stomach pain -which eventually later on in real labor I found out they were contractions- I was so sleepy that after about 5 contractions every maybe 4 mins getting less painful as they went on I fell asleep and they stopped !
Avatar f tn My midwife told me that if you drink 32oz of water, and lay on your side and rest braxton hicks will stop. If its real contractions, they will stop, but then come back shortly only way more intense and then you know if your really in labor.
Avatar f tn Ive been having BH or contractions. And my baby has not moved as much as other days. Im 25+4 weeks.
Avatar f tn If they are real contractions there is nothing that will stop them.
3182438 tn?1359489871 I hope they can get your contractions to stop.
Avatar f tn I am 34+5 weeks. And I have been having contractions a lot lately.. Not braxton hicks. Is it safe if I go into labor this early? Will my baby be okay?
Avatar f tn No real contractions are just that...they are real and progress into labour... and because the contractions do stop that means they are BH... to rule out true labour contractions your are supposed to do the opposite of what you were doing when they started... if your resting and you feel them then get up and move around and they should subside... if you are walking or are being active when you rest they should subside...
4193337 tn?1355698372 t been able to eat, I feel like I may be having contractions again but im not sure if its contractions or baby moving because I had a c section so things feel differently this time . With my son I loved being pregnant, it flew by but this time everytime I turn around I feel like something else is going to go wrong. I am terrified of losing my baby girl. Im to the point that I worry so much that I cant tell if I actually am fine or not. I just cant wait to be at 37 weeks so I can have my baby.
689265 tn?1251130087 The girl I nannied for she had contractions like that. they were full blown contractions and then just stopped and then a day later they started again and she ended up having her baby.
Avatar f tn Is anyone else having a mixture of differant kinds of contractions that are painful then they stop then come back then they stop and then come back...mine have been doin that for about 2 hours.!!!
Avatar f tn lol Been that way for a few weeks. If you get any bleeding or steady contractions then I would call your doctor.
Avatar f tn Now if u think its the real contractions u have to go to the hospital so u can get treated and stop the contractions. Ur way to early. But if they stop it just false labour some ppl get them very early and dehydrated makes it more painful then what they should be.
Avatar f tn If they stop that mean it's not true labour. U have to wait til u get the real ones. Which will be when they don't stop n r between 3 to 5 min.
Avatar f tn I say u should go check cuss I had my baby at 35 weeks
Avatar f tn I'm a ftm at 32+4 weeks. Today I was leaving out of tha store and suddenly started feeling cramping pains. It lasted for a couple of minutes here & there but it was like dull and kinda mild. I'm absolutely scared that idk what contractions are to know what's going on. I drunk a bottle of water & nothing happened. I then took a hot bath and sat on tha couch and propped my feet up and was fine. Maybe it was braxton Hicks? Its tha first time that has ever happened.
Avatar f tn i had 3 shots to stop contractions anyone else have them.. I'm 33 weeks ?? What other problems does anyone have ?
Avatar f tn If you are having contractions then the sooner you get there the better the chances are of being able to stop them or ensure that the baby gets the care it needs. I hope that its a false alarm but if not then there is a lot that the hospital can do to help so try to stay positive. Good luck.
Avatar f tn Yea that definitely sounds like contractions. Try laying down & kicking up ur feet to see if it gets any better. Otherwise I would call ur doc back or go in.
