contractions
Im due september 9th I dont have any contractions jusy a few braxtom hicks any other women having cramping yet
Im having back pains with it
Bad gas pains/diarrhea pain that doesn't go away!
Start timing them because for my first son everyone said it feel like bad period cramps or gas pains... to me my period cramps felt wayyy worse so if it wasnt for my mom being down here with me and telling me look you are in labor we need to go to the hospital I was probably going to have the baby on my bed!! I was 7cm when I got to the hospital and still felt pretty good to be in labor...
When I went into labor with my daughter, my contractions felt like gas pains and constipation, so I didn't know that I was in labor until several hours later when I started timing them. They were 4 minutes apart by then.
So I'm 41 weeks and I feel like I'm starting my period. Just really terrible cramps. I've heard that's what contractions feel like. I also feel like i have to poop, like i have gas pains but i cant go. I've felt awful all day and have really bad back pain as well. I don't know what to think!
Ok so I woke up about 20 mins ago to go pee and I laid back down and I got severe pains in my stomach and back. I thought it was gas pains but these keep coming and going every 2-3 mins..my stomach does get hard. Idk if it's gas pain or contractions :( i thought i needes to pass gas or use the bathroom and nothing, no gas will pass and i feel horrible, even when i walk or move my stomach hurts. someone please help.

) with my first pregnancy when i started to go into labor i started feeling contractions in my lower back i guess what they call back labor omg it was painfull my contractions were over the roof since the beginning.. Well now this time around i started feeling i guess contractions every now and then but they feel different. Sort of like really bad cramps like my uterus is being twisted from the inside it feels far less painful than back contractions....
It could be contractions! I would call the doctor or go to the ER and get checked! Could be pre~term labor!!!! Regardless, it's better safe than sorry! Good luck, keep updating!!
Ok so I need help from you guys...do contractions feel like bad menstrual cramps or gas pains? I've been having pain like that all afternoon but nothing is real consistent or anything. Is this Braxton Hicks?
I'm 39 weeks and 1 centimeter dilated but not sure what contractions feel like, I've felt like I've had cramps like I have really bad gas but not sure if that's contractions or not...
if you are having pains and want to know whether they are contractions or not, then feel your belly when you have the pain if it is so hard like a rock then it is a contraction, if it isn't then it is eight Braxton hicks or gas...
Mine felt like bad gas pains and constipation with my second, so I didn't even know I was in labor. With my first, my water broke, so I didn't get contractions until I was already at the hospital, and I don't remember what they felt like. Wondering if the third will be completely different or like one of my first two.
I'm 35+2 - I've obviously never been in labor being a FTM, I have a high pain tolerance and just worry I won't know when I'm having contractions. Will i think they're just gas pains, or normal pregnancy symptoms. Everyone says "Oh you'll know" but that just doesn't stop the worrying. What were some of your experiences when you were FTMs???
