Q: This Is What I Think

During labor it hurts in your tummy...
During delivery it hurts in your vagina...
And correct me if im wrong, ive never felt it, so I dont know. That just seems most logic to me.

I know you have contractions before you even go into labor, so where do they hurt? Ive asked girls this question before, and they say "well it hurts, so your not paying attention to where" and it frusterates me cause that wasnt the question. Please help :)

Wehn I was contracting at home, I was having pains in my lower abdomin....Whihc hten when it started getting closer, I was contracting in my back along with my lower abdomin. When I say lower abdomin, i'm talking about where you'd have pains if you're menstrating. Some girls get them in teh top of the belly and on the sides...It also depends on the person for that.

That makes me feel better, cause sometimes when I sit up from laying down I feel these sharp pains back and forth...Like down south. And that only happens when ive been sitting up, like at the computer for a long time. I mean, there so bad I freeze up and cant move, I have to lay back down, and they go away. Did this ever happen to you? Or do you know what im talking about?
