in the last 48 hours I have had five 3-4 hour spouts of what I am guessing is back labor. each time it gets more intense. last night it started at 1 am and didn't stop until 430. didn't go to the hospital because it was 7-10 min apart. I have had a crazy amount of bowel movements in the past 2 days and woke up this morning to feeling like someone punched me in both butt cheaks. anyone go through this?????
