I hate not knowing for sure if I'm having contractions. I thought I was having contractions for a week and then saw mr dr and (I actually talked to a student he was teaching who worked in labor and delivery for a few years and wanted to work in the office area) she told me that it's just brackston hicks. My dr and I didn't talk about this since I talked to her. But it's getting worse again today. But I was completely closed yesterday. I'm so confused. :(
It was horrible I would not wish back labor on ANYONE the only way I knew I was actually in labor was the back pain came and went and I could hardly walk or stand to do anything, but now I have a beautiful sassy 4 year old that I love mort than life itself.
With my first I never felt contractions at all.I had back labor and while they needed me to push while in labor they only way I knew it was time was because I had my hands on my tummy to feel it tighten.
That's what I meant. I know that they are practice ones but I was so sure they were real and I was dilating atleast a little bit. I'm completely closed though. @savanahr777
Braxton hicks are practice contractions they do nothing. Real contractions make you dilate eventually the bh will get stronger that's when they are real contractions.

Guys if I was looking at a place to rent on Craigslist and I go to click on the ad again and this pops up does that mean it's a scam?? I need to know because my boyfriend and I have been talking to the person !!
I have Braxton hicks contractions often now, usually when I'm at work. You still have 9 1/2 weeks left to stay in 👀It's not time yet 😌😲
