So on the way home earlier tonight Owen was moving a lot and when we stopped at the store I had that pulling/pushing feeling a few times while in the store (more frequent than before). Now I can't get comfortable and I can't do anything to make it stop once it's started.. Gonna try taking a shower, while I'm in there does anyone have any suggestions? My pelvis area feels really heavy when it happens and I feel like I have to pee like 6 gallons when it happens but nothing comes out when I go to the bathroom.

Plus being 31 weeks , I wasn't expecting to have them, so I just wasn't really worrying about it, if I didn't go in when I did, I might be even more dilated or have a baby as we speak. Lol
Sorry that was so long lol, but mine were the same and my so and mom kept bothering me about it, and I was like ugh on I'll go in but it's probably just Braxton hicks or my stretching, but nope, definitely contractions
Oh wow!! Yeah I'm still awake from them but I don't wanna wake up my SO and have him take me because I'm scared it'll just be nothing although they're getting more and more painful. Idk what I would do if I was 31 weeks and this was happening!! I'm 39 so this is to be expected but holy crap girl!! I hope it gets somewhat better for you!!! @alexzandriar
If this helps any, I'm only 31 weeks, and I was having the same thing, for two days, so I went in, got looked at, they said I was completely closed no way I was having contractions and not dilated, then 15 mins later, I was having contractions every 5 mins, and they were just going to let me go home thinking that they weren't strong enough, but just decided to check me again, and in 30 mins I was 1 cm dilated, and 40% effaced, I know that doesn't sound like too much, but being 31 weeks it's terrifying, now I'm still in the hospital getting steroid shots and medicine to stop the contractions every 6 hrs, so doesn't always hurt to go in!
Which still might be early labor but too early to head in if that makes sense lol
Sounds like it might just be Braxton hicks but sometimes it is hard to tell. If it doesn't hurt it PROBABLY isn't time
Okay I mean it's not painful but it's definitely uncomfortable. Maybe I'll go if it gets worse because that shower didn't help at all. My stomach just got harder and heavier lol but thank you for the advice!! Definitely appreciate it!!! @mommameaghann
I'd think too early for hospital, but it never hurts to call L&D and see what they suggest. I've been feeling like how you describe for a few days but haven't progressed far enough yet and nothing ever stabilizes for me
So should I wait it out and go to the hospital when it becomes worse or should I go anyway and see how far I am and what not? @mommameaghann
Yeah my SO thinks it's just BH but idk honestly me being a FTM I'm just worried and wanna know what's going on in there but it being 5am I don't wanna piss him off and drag him out of bed if it's nothing lol but yeah I wouldn't think anything of it at 31 weeks so definitely a good thing you went in and found out it was a bigger deal than just BH!! @alexzandriar
