contractions
My contractions tightened my whole stomach.
s the only way I can have sex other than that I get horrible contractions.. idk what to do any tips ladies. It really did made me feel bad.
All day I've been having these sharp cramp like pains in my pubic area and lower bump. They've been pretty intense and I'm hoping it's labor starting up, but my question is do you feel the contractions at the top of your bump too? Because I haven't felt anything higher then my belly button but some of these cramps get really intense.
Last week or so I started getting an achy feeling in one particular spot up the top of my belly if I stood for too long. Like bak ache but at top of tummy. Spoke to midwife bout it and she suggested it may b braxton hicks but im 90% sure its not. Then jus starting this week if ive bent over, sneezed or coughed that same area gives me pain. Finding it real weird as its the same spot everytime but ther is never any limbs ther and its not where my ribs r or anything else that I cud think of.......
I've been getting false labor contractions a lot as well as braxhicks, my midwife told me the braxhicks you will feel on the top of your belly, for me it's like the feeling of tightening my abb muscles, where as the contractions are at the bottom of your belly and for most women they start out feeling like period cramps with minor back aches, so far that info has helped me a lot :) just waiting for labor!
Hm. Google where the top of your uterus is at your number of weeks. If you're not showing you're probably under 20wks (just guessing) so your uterus won't be up very high at that point. If you're feeling the tightening much above your belly button for example it's probably something besides contractions. Just my thoughts.
Yes all over are they coming n going how far apart
My ob says that contractions feel like intense menstrual cramps and the top of your belly will feel really tight. You might also have pain in your back, sides of your belly, and down into your thighs. At 35 weeks I was already dilated 1cm and had no idea. I had felt some stabbing pains in my cervix but my ob says that may be the aftermath of the contractions and I didn't feel the actual contraction itself. It'll hurt more when you get to 5-6 cms. Yay!
ve had have stopped me in my tracks and had me hudled over in pain they usually start in my back travel to the top of my belly and work their way down into my pelvis feels like baby is trying to rip his way out of my belly hurts like hell and from what I hear only gets worse when your in active labour but I wouldn't know i'm a ftm 37 weeks and haven't gotten that far yet
If its low in your abdomen its not contractions. Contractions will go across the whole top of your belly and are gradual sharp pains. Sounds like ligament pains to me. Drink some water lay on your left side and see if you feel better.
With both my labor experiences my water broke at the top of the sack before I actually started having contractions so there was still a cushion of water between my cervix & the baby's head. I also did not get an epidural either time & don't plan on one with this baby either. The 1st time you give birth it's a bit scary because you don't know what to expect & you're not sure what the pain will feel like but each subsequent labor gets easier. Hope this helps!
Call labour and delivery or go in. If your stomach gets really hard like as hard as your forehead it's real contractions of it feels like your chin it's braxton hicks. Stand up and touch the top of your belly and push gently again if it's hard like your forehead it could be real contractions kinda soft like your chin braxton hicks. I learned this yesterday in my birthing classes and besides better to be safe than sorry 25 weeks is still way early to be having baby.
Yes I know the real ones comes from your Lower back. MY back does hurt but it's just hurting from doing things and it's on top of my back. the pain in my belly feels exactly like menstrual pain it's don't know if that's braxton hicks or just other kind of pain...
We needed juice so we went to walmart. After 10 mins of walking,the pain came back under my belly and so badly that it looked like i had a limp walking. Now today i was getting ready for work. I felt nauseous and the pain was going across my belly,on top,and on the bottom. Hurt so bad i laid on the floor. I didnt want to move. Seems like everytime i walk or move this happens! Im 26wks and 1 day. Anyone go through this? The l&d lady said it sounded like minor contractions but im not sure.
d twice already and given shots to stop them.
