question, contractions, please respond!

edited September 2011 in Pregnant
I don't want to call or go in just yet I would like a few opinions.

A little under an hour ago I asked about how to tell the difference of BH contracting and labor contractions. Now I have a new question? Lol.

They are painless, tightening fully around my stomach, with very little but noticeable pressure in my lower back and butt. I've been timing them for 45 minutes with and app I have. They are coming about every 3 minutes and lasting about 30 seconds.
They came out of nowhere? So I'm not sure if they should be labor. Can labor start out of nowhere and become this regular? In early labor is that a decent spacing? I read online they should be more like 10 minutes apart and shouldn't be so regular.
Let me repeat that they don't hurt AT ALL. They aren't even uncomfortable, just weird feeling, but they are regular..... idk its weird.

I'm either 36w5d OR 38w1d I had two due dates.

  • I've been having the same thing for a week now. They will come and be pretty regular for a couple hours then just go away. My doctor told me to go in when they are painful. She said if you can't do the dishes through the contractions then they are probably real labor ones.
  • Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm going to wait it out the night. I have a dr appointment at 11am tomorrow so I'll ask then. They should also be checking me for the first time tomorrow.
    @mshahir I know labor can be spontaneous, but I mean like he hasn't really dropped and I didn't lose my mucous plug or anything like that. I don't even have more discharge. Nothing really... this is the first time anything has happened.
