When has everyone started feeling their first contractions? I'm 38 weeks & 3 days.. I don't think I've felt one at all yet. I'm definitely not wanting to rush the baby.. Just slightly worried that I haven't really had any signs of labor yet(aside from being 1 cm dilated last week).. I'm not even uncomfortable at all really.
If you feel any cramping or tightness in your lower back and stomach and crotch area those are contractions and you can't miss them! They aren't so bad right now cause they are so spaced out I can't imagine them being a minute apart... Lol & I feel you on the having to pee constantly. I swear I should sleep in the bathroom as many times as I wake up to go. Lol @abwheeler7 hopefully your little one comes soon!
@bentley_mommy, that's true every woman and pregnancy is different. I have a fear that I am going to be in labor and I just missed the signs lol. I have definitely been staying on top of my kick counts for that reason (among all the other reasons to keep up with it.) So far babies movement has remained the same. I'm having trouble sleeping myself at this point just from being anxious (& having to pee constantly haha)
I am having contractions now. 2-3 minutes long, 30 minutes apart, every 4-5 hours. I'm 36 weeks and 3 days. Honestly some woman don't feel contractions until after their water breaks. My mom didn't know she was in labor with me at all and they took her to the hospital because I wasnt moving and turns out my head was halfway out. Not trying to scare you but it's different for every woman. My mom had contractions and her water broke with both my brothers. Every pregnancy is different. Be lucky tho your not having contractions I'm in so much pain and discomfort that I can't sleep. 😧 @abwheeler7
So I have question I'm 23 weeks and I thought a 9 lbs weight gain was good but now I'm re thinking it what is normal at this stage is it to much I'm stressing out I am really watching what I eat and I really don't over eat sad mommy here 😔
I'm extremely jelous. ... I see all this girls feeling there babies at 11 weeks and there ftm too yet I'm 15 weeks and don't even feel flutters... what am I doing wrong
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.

Thanks for all the ❤️ guys! I think I'm in shock! Labor story in a bit I'm being attacked with visitors lol
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
I was 1cm from 28 weeks-42 weeks. I never went into labor on my own.
