I didnt feel them til i was in labor. I got my membranes stripped to get labor going and It started out like light cramps that came and went, then when i started contracting i could like feel my stomach tightening but it wasnt really painful. Those were the really early stages. The farther along i got i felt like i was having bad cramps and pressure like the baby was pushing down and it just got more and more intense.

Like a combo between really bad menstrual and stomach cramps like you need to #2. For me they slowly have been getting longer and more frequent. Took a couple weeks, last night for three hours contractions 10 min apart lasting 30secs. That was the first time I was really able to time them.

Lmao contractions REAL labor contractions are the devil but then again there’s levels to them like hot wings

And like he was squeezing all of my insides as hard as he could and preparing to come out my butt. That’s the only way I can think to explain it lol

Like the baby was gonna come out of my butt

My contractions were bearable till they broke my water and after that I cried like a big baby with every contraction... the pain was excruciating, I’m not even going to sugar coat it lol.. that’s why I got an epidural the second time around!

Had a shooting pain going up from my vag to my bellybutton and back down it was weirdd yet hurt a little until i got epi

REALLY bad cramps , terrible like I was screaming/cursing at my bf to go get the doctor .. I personally couldn’t bare them

To me it was like when your stomach is upset after eating some gas station sushi but using the restroom doesn't help, it is just endless pain then it is over.

By then i was dialated to a 5 and completely effacrd

I didn't feel a single thing until they broke my water.
