how were your contractions??

edited August 2011 in Labor
Did they come full force? Or slow and steady? I've been having what I think are contractions since about 3pm.. but they aren't regular yet, and they wont go away I've walked, laid on left side drank water and they're still the same. I just wanna know if she's coming this weekend or if its nothing. . I'm 39 weeks. Contractions feel like bad period cramps, start at my back go around to the front, my tummy gets hard then it goes away, lasts about 40 seconds. Oh also I have lotsss of pressure down there while I'm having these

  • Sounds like contractions to me!! But of course I had back labor with both of mine so I never felt a tummy contraction.
  • My tummy doesn't hurt its just uncomfortable my back is what really hurts and the pressure OMG. . I guess I was kinda expecting like with my son I had regular super painful tummy contractions and I knew I was in labor when I got that first contraction. @mommy moftwoprincesses
  • I had those a month before I had him so you never really can tell. When you feel like you swallowed 10 knives and they're stabbing you from the inside, that's when you know it's time! Haha. I had the contractions you're describing and I thought they were bad till my water broke and 5 minutes later "real" contractions started and I thought I was going to die if I didn't get my epidural!
  • Lol @bentleysmommy I've had kinda painful bh but these are worse and the pressure. . I hope she's not just teasing me!! I'm ready to meet this little girl
  • But they aren't bad enough to run to the hospital yet.. hopefully something happens tomorrow!
