Okay ive been having braxton hicks contractions for over a month so I kno how they feel & in the last hour ive had 2 contractions that hurt and I was woundering how does it start when you go into labor. like how far are conttractions at first. This is my frist so I have no clue. Thanks.

Should I call my doctor I jus had another one.

They usualy start about 15 to 20 min apart which is early labor n u have a while 2 go and they dont last that long either. Believe me ur body will knw whn ur in active labor bc they will come regularly n b very hard pains and lng 1s. Hope it helps. The hospitals usually tell u 2 go hme unless ir water broke or unless the contractions r makn u dialate progressively. U will knw though believe me.

How far apart r they n how lng r they lasting

Carters_momma

They last for a mintue or over. And really hurt from the top to the bottom of my stomach. When I have braxton hicks they jus make my belly really tight. But these hurt.

Carters_momma

There like 25 mins apart.
