I don't know if these are actually contractions I feel alot of pain in my back since I'm on medication I can't feel them in my stomach.. can't get comfortable and I can't sleep through them. Think I'm going to contact my midwife and see what she says come tomorrow..

Real contractions will have you screaming and crying on the floor. You may be having Braxton Hicks, which are similar to the real thing, just not as intense.

@theinkedmommy these are very intense and they make me cry. I keep my fiance up at night because it hurts so bad

@silasmommie Have they checked to see if you’re dilated yet? How close together are they?

@silasmommie, Sounds to me like you may be dilating more. Keep track of how close they are and if they go away or not. If they’re 2-3 mins apart for a while, I’d go in to L&D to be safe.

I had this exact same thing happened to me! I felt pain in my back but not in my stomach, I called my Dr and was told if I start to feel pains in my belly to come in, I never did feel pain in my stomach (until the last moment) and these pains went on for a few days and then I started feeling the pain all over come and go and it was extremely bad so I went to the hospital and was dilated to 9 1/2 , no time for epidural or anything and I was only 3 1/2 cm a few days before (when the bad back pain started) so if anything worries u, I'd go get checked. Better to be sent home then to have baby at home like I almost did, luckily I was able to get to the hospital in 15 mins, had him 10 mins later!!

@pclevenger22 I will see how tonight goes and I'm waiting to hear back from my doctor. I honestly think I dialated more but I'll see.
