for moms who had their babies, what did your first real contractions (not BH) feel like? please describe the best you can like pain wise, did you feel pressure and where did you feel the pressure, etc.
i felt her move down on my dilated cervix and I told my ex to get the nurse and I was right and they prepared to deliver my baby girl
Yes please wait till you can't take them anymore I ended up feeling rips stitches everything! got mine at 4 1/2 cm dilated nd completely effaced nd labor lasted longer I stopped dilating at 9 cm good luck!:) don't let them send u home if their unbearable nd close
when they r 3 to 4 minutes apart they won't send u home. but I would walk around until u can't take it, just to open ur cervix more because if ur not open they'll just tell u to walk. and for me, it was better to walk then lay in the hospital bed. (less painful) but every hospital is different.
that is fast. ill have to watch n them and go in if they get stronger. thank you @babygirl10-11
it took a few hrs my cramps started about 12 pm but didnt become real till 1130 that night and got unbearable till 12 then my water broke at 1230 had my baby at 125 am lol super fast didnt even have a chance to get the epidurl
how soon did u notice they were getting worse? @busy_prissy i dont wanna drive an hour to my hospital to just be sent home
at first they weren't painful just tightening of the whole belly. and they were automatically, 4 to 5 minutes. it was like when ur belly hurts because u have to go poop. and they just keep getting worse.
ok thanks bc an hour after my bf n i had sex i started getting cramps that felt just like my period and i get this pressure feelings down by my butthole tmi n they only last 45 sec or so n their about 7 min apart but like u said im just thinking of them as prego pains @babygirl10-11 if they r real how soon did urs get stronger?
at first the feel like period cramps but u will think there just prego pains but as they get stronger you will know they are contractions because they will stop u dead in ur tracks and u will probley yell at someone if they tlk to u during one lol
AF due 29th, anyone else?
Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x
For those of you whom are married.. how did you feel after? did you feel things changed? it was the same? Do you feel like the 1st year was rough?
graduate
What year did you graduate high school?
What gender is everyone having? Did you "feel" like you were having a boy or girl and was right or wrong?
Today makes 18 weeks pregnant. Around what time did you feel your baby kick for the first time. And what does it feel like ( first pregnancy over here ) lol
my very first ones felt like Braxton hicks and the more I had them, the more painful they became. just make sure you're timing them to see if there is a pattern!
