my one daughter I had no idea I was I. labor all I did was wake up and had this annoying pain/ pressure in lower back like the width of us thumb on my spine I called in because it wouldn't go away went in and I was 4 and half cm dilated and fully phased within half an hour I was 5 to 5 and half and weird thing was I still wasn't feeling contractions but felt like I have to use the bathroom a lot they nurses and doctor said it was because the baby was coming down they were currently prepping me for c section she was a footling breech

There is such thing as back labor where u don't fully feel contractions all the way
