Hey ladies I'm 38 weeks and its sad to say I've asked my doctor thousands of time how to time…

In all of the birthing videos/classes I've attended, they say to start the timer at the beginning of one, note how long it lasted and then do the same thing when it starts again. Then you compare them from the beginning of one to the beginning of the next and that's how you know how far apart they are rather than from the end of one to the beginning of the next (which is how I originally thought it was). I hope that helps and i didn't word that too confusingly. 😁

Ask your dr. again you have nothing to be scared about its her job. If you are confused when shes explaining ask all the questions you need until you fully understand

I have this app it helps count contractions you just press the button when you start feeling the pain stop it when its over n it counts the minutes for you

I'm scared I won't know how to either... try downloading an app called "contractions timer" it's like a stopwatch and does it for you. I hope this app helps us a little when it comes to it lol

its called pregnancy

thank u ladies I have an appointment at 2pm today so hopefully they check everything and can tell if I'm dilating
