Should I be embarrassed about going to the hospital a lot towards the end? I feel like I'm going to…

It might be better to labor at home until your contractions are 4 or 5 minutes apart. That way you're in your own space and you can eat and go to the bathroom and whatnot.

I'm a first time mom and terrified I won't even know what's happening 😔😒 @babymaciesmomma

Well, there are two types of contractions. First are Braxton hicks. Painless but uncomfortable. It's your abdomen feeling tight and tensed up. Real ones are painful. And get more painful and closer together. You'll be okay. Maybe just have a nurse line phone number you can call instead of going in every time?

Thank you! It helps when people talk to me about it. I have no idea what I'm getting into and everything makes me terrified. And that's a good idea.. I get Braxton hicks a lot during the days.. @babymaciesmomma

I felt the same... don't worry your not alone

Thank god! @vero_ivan
