Hey any women who already have children can tell me how do contractions start off like what should i look for?

Mine was all back labor. Like he worst period cramps

@dollfacenanii, THANKS!

@amorasmom, dont worry hun we were made for this :D you will be great & @hug23 i have been dilated 1cm for a month & a half my OB is checking me on monday again

@hug23, thanks that makes me a little less nervous

@amorasmom, just remember, our bodies were made for this. <3

@hug23, my tolerance for pain in low sadly

@dollfacenanii, thanks

That's how it was for me about a week ago, they were going to keep me but I didn't dilate anymore while I was there so they sent me home ):

@hug23, i have high tolerance for pain & i feel but they are not really bad @amorasmom sometimes you feel it in your back & lower stomach thats what my OB said to look out for as well

for me they started off as cramps and got worse throughout.

@amorasmom, they can cause extreme back pain as well! but that's mainly the 2 places you'll feel them!

They were tolerable. although I have a high pain tolerance. I was laughing and joking around last time I was in the hospital with them, and the nurse said they were super strong.

@hug23, do they only come in your stomach?

@hug23, when they first started was it really bad? Or was it tolerable? Im having some pains that even while sitting it sort of hurts but i can tolerate it so im wondering i have never really experienced contractions

I haven't had mine yet, but I have had real contractions. They really are like intense period cramps!
