I hate to ask this kind of question. But how long is considered "normal" to have contractions after intercourse? I haven't timed them but I had intercourse and have now been having contractions for around 4 hours now. As of right now, they are coming at least every 5 mins. I am only 32 weeks so I am just concerned. I took a shower, drank water, rested, and ate. They aren't going away.
