I'm not a ftm but with my first I was induced and didn't start labor on my own and once the contractions did start it was mainly in my back. Right now I'm sitting in my bath tub and I feel like I may be having contractions or Braxton hicks but I'm not sure. It kinda feels like my whole stomach is tightening up for a minute or so than releasing. It's more uncomfortable than painful right now but my back is killing me and has been for a few hours. I don't wanna go to L&D for nothing. Idk what to do.
Time them, if they get closer then 5 min apart for an hour, definitely go in
