Okay girlies, don't judge I'm a ftm and have no clue what anything feels like- Braxton hicks or real thing? While I was at work I had this really bad pain (TMI, felt like I really had to poop or something) and I couldn't move for a couple min because it hurt so much. I had 3 of these all about an hour apart. Then when I got home and relaxed they stopped. I just feel tightening now. Do I go in when those really bad pains are about a min apart or are these just Braxton hicks?

They won't check you unless they are painful on a reg and coming in at least 5 mins apart . Not if your still having bh back and forth . And being on your feet can cause them . That's why they'll tell you to relax and etc and see if they still continue usually when they that far for that long it's not time and you can just relax and they'll stop . @katey0626

I will @jeanetta25 maybe they will check and see if I'm dilated at all. My midwife told me they normally don't check until 39 weeks though. I was thinking it might be cause I'm on my feet all day at work?

But if the pain has stopped and it's just tightening then that's BH it can go back and forth honestly . But you will know when it's time for real @katey0626

In my experience @octoberbabies257 when I had my son I was having contractions starting at every 10 mins not bh real contractions they were every 5 mins apart for 3 whole days before they kept me cause I was dilating at all . But once I started to they came in close pretty fast and they kept me . Bh isn't suppose to be painful to where you can't move that's just tightening and a lot of pressure @katey0626 so if they are painful you should call and tell them but they will tell you if they not coming in close to relax and try to deal with them because they can't keep you. It's ladies on here who are due any day now as well who are also having real contractions and been back and forth to the hospital but sent home as well because it's either not close enough or not dilating . So if they are painful but not close together just try to relax and hopefully they come together soon.

no harm in getting checked out, but sounds like BH
