Contractions yes or no???

posted 5th Sep
Okay... I am having these rolling waves if slight hardly existent sp? pain that start at the middle of my belly the roll down south... are these contractions? I had two right in a row..but now I can't feel any more coming? And if they are real contractions would a warm bath make them more intense? and if they are BH will the bath make them stop?

Well is your belly tightening up when they happen? Usually it feels almost like the baby stretching out is how I described it but then I learned that its actually your uterus tightening around the baby. If so I'd say possibly contractions. If you are having more then 4 in an hour call Labor and Delivery and ask them about it. If they've stopped then I would think they are BH and not to worry about it. If all else fails and you are worried call anyway you are quite a ways off from your due date still and L&D its their job to answer questions like this, better to be safe then sorry.

Thanks.. this is just the first of either I have felt, I guess I freaked out a little.. everyone keeps asking me if I've had contractions ..and I'm always like I wouldn't know because no one can tell me what they feel like or what to expect.

It gets a little bit tighter and she is being really active right now. but it feels like someone is taking a sharp pencil and running it down my belly.. but I've already felt there in the last few minutes.. real contractions wouldnt' come on that fast would they?

I'm guessing that they are BH. If it was real contractions, you wouldn't be asking..lol There is NOO mistaking them.

It's possible they could be contractions. Like everyone is telling you " you'll know when they are real" is not entirely true. I've been having contractions the last 4 day and didn't even know. I just thought they were bh, but when I went to see my doctor I was having them in the office and he said they were the real deal.

They sound a lot like BH. Are they consistent in any way?

No they aren't consistent.. I felt three almost in a row and now nothing for the last 6-8 minutes... and during the time I felt them she was being so active it was hard to tell what was what..

Were they random or were they pretty regular... because this pain is completely being random..

They would be like 20 mins apart and then stop for a few hours and then come back. They aren't getting any closer though. Which is why I thought they were bh. I would get them no matter what I was doing though..
