Also if you drink water and lay down and they lessen or go away that is false
labor or
braxton hicks. If no matter what you do they get worse and you can time them (and they are consistant) then that is real labor. I thought with braxton hicks if you got up and walked they were suppose to get better. One night I was having horrible pains, like contractions, and they wouldn't go away. I called in and they told me to lay down and drink water.
