I'm pretty sure I'm experiencing false labor. I've been having menstral like cramping non stop for 12+ hours with contractions ranging from 5-10mins apart nothing consistent and they haven't increased in pain, but they are painful and I'm pretty uncomfortable and can't sleep through them. any other mamas experience this, how long does it last or does it eventually progress into true labor?
@tiffany_sanft, yes! I waited a complete 24 hours until I started getting bad contraction in my back, but they still weren't any more than 7 mins apart but I could barely walk so I decided to head in, ended up being 3cm dialated and was pushing 7 hours later! I hope it progresses as easily for you!
This is what I'm experiencing! I see it ended up being real for you. Congrats!!
The general rule of thumb is that if you have more than 4 contractions in one hour, then you need to call your dr and they would probably recommend going to L&D to be monitored.
Oh no! I would've been so fustrated! so now you're told to just wait it out? I'm hoping it either turns into something or goes away lol I can't sleep!
We are currently going through the exact same thing.. I was scheduled to be induced today at noon because they thought I had Choleostasis and the lab thought they lost my blood work.. Well an hour before they called me and said all is well... Frustrating.. But last night I started having little cramps and then contractions same thing girl. Let me know how yours turns out.. Praying it doesn't disappear!!
@malikaidhmama, wow that's awesome! Thank you ☺️☺️
