my contractions weren't normal with either one of my kids. i posted something like this back in april and my son was born the next morning! i can't even imagine how uncomfortable you must be..

i'm confused about waht you are posting....

5-1-1 rule

contractions are 5 minutes apart (from the start of one, to the start of next)
lasting about 1 minute
this goes on for about an hour

then call the doctor and/or go to the hospital

I am no help in this but I still would like to say that you still have the cutest roundest baby belly ever! I always like looking at your avi because it makes me imagine how round and cute the baby is inside

then I would go to the hospital or call your doctor, which ever he told you to do when you think you are in labor.

they could be the start of labor. Drink some water see if they go away. They should start getting regular and closer together. Keep track and if you are still having them in an hour I'd at least call L&D and tell them. They may want to see you

aww lol thankyou! I am going to miss it i think   but it really is time this baby gets here lol she is so stubborn..

I just had my daughter on the 12th...and my contractions had no pattern whatsoever until right before she came...like 10 minutes before. Then they were like 1 minute apart and lasted about 45 seconds. Before that, they were random.
