Okay so I'm 35 +1 weeks and all day my stomach has been getting tight, usually at the top of my…

Braxton hicks?

@olson0305, that could be it, I've already been in the hospital with contractions and this doesn't hurt near as bad as those did. just feel like I need to stop procrastinating and pack my hospital bag, I have the baby's just not mine and my husband's lol

What did they say/do the first time?? I have BH a lot, sometimes nonstop for like 7 hours...but it happened with my first 2 babies as well and I knew it was actual labor when it was painful and came at regular intervals

@pperry, track them how often they are happening. those sound like contractions. I'm in preterm labor and have 4 or so an hour. they don't hurt either. just feel really uncomfortable.

@olson0305, @little_1_on_the_way they admitted me in the hospital and gave me a bunch of pills and shot me with steroids and got them stopped. they've calmed down now but off and on all day today it was like you said more uncomfortable than pains. just sucks cause my husband has to work tonight so if anything happens it's just me

@pperry, yeah I was in the hospital last week because I was having 8-10 contractions an hour all day long. I got admitted to and checked. my cervix is soft. my son is trying to exit lol. they slowed mine down I'm down to 2-4 an hour.

@little_1_on_the_way, I honestly want him to be healthy but I'm ready for him to be out of me lol but congratulations and I hope everything goes good!!!

That's scary because I get braxton hicks all the time and the only way I can tell contractions and bh apart is by the pain. I didn't know contractions could be painless@little_1_on_the_way @pperry @olson0305

@lovelymommylumps, yeah I thought it was weird too
