Theyr 2 to 3 minutes apart and pretty regular. Only random once in a while. And they are lasting almost a minute each. I'm still having period cramping in my back and front and pains down below. No show or anything. I hope its not just because of me freaking out a little bit. They've been going on since Saturday and then they were about 5 to 6 mins apart

    If you're not in so muuch pain that you're screaming or crying, then I wouldn't worry. They're most likely just painful braxton hicks. They start getting painful towards the end. Unless the pain is unbearable, they won't change your cervix. I was in triage ALOT because I thought if they were close and regular it was labor, but I didn't know it had to be super painful for me to dilate. Hope this helps! Drink some water though to help with the cramping!

    I had that about a week ago when my ex best friend made me angry. I was so pissed that I had a dull back ache and strong regular contractions that were painful, but not true labor. I drank water and reclined in my chair and they went away. It's kinda freaky, but we'll know when its true labor!

    I've been having them before I got freaked out and this is while laying down and being hydrated. I'm calm now and still having them

    They don't have to be super painful for you to dialate. Everyones body is different so you kinda have to play it by ear. With 2 of my deliveries they just felt like cramps until I dialated to 7cm. Then they got super painful.
