I Am 18, And 31 Weeks Along..and Dont Know a Lot.... Posted: 12-28-03 00:50am
My son will be here in 9 weeks..The
problem is I dont kno how to tell if i'm
having contractions..B/c, well..I dont kno
what they feel like. They always talk
about them, but no one ever tells you what
they are exactly. So if someone could
just fill me in on stuff like that..I'd
really appreciate it.

Hey,
well first off, congrats on your son!!
You must be very excited. The
contractions will depend on what type of
labor you have. Example, back labor can
feel like extreme back pain and regular
labor feels like your stomache is
tightening up. You will definitely know
what it is when it happens because it is
unmistakable.... Lol
email me if you want to chat. Wish you
the best of luck and god bless you...
Joyce :d

Hey u will know if you have reguler labor
your tummy will get very hard where u cant
indent it it does feel very uncomfortable
but just breath through them and you will
do just fine I have never had back labor
so I cant really tell you any thing. I
have been contracting for 3 days know and
I have only dialated to a one so maybe
your labor will be easy.
If you want to chat some time just e-mail
me or im me.

Pat has serious issues! Pat you are a
rude and evil person! Evil is the only
word to describe you. You must have
absolutley no life and no friends because
you waste a lot of time talking garbage to
people you do not even know! You must
love us all because you hang out here more
than any of us!!
stephy, good luck with the labor and your
baby will be beautiful and is blessed to
have a mother like you who is concerned
that all goes well!

False labor contractions will just feel
like your stomache tightening. It might
be uncomfortable, but not necessarily
painful. If it is and the pain is
relieved by switching positions, more than
likely it is false labor.
Real labor contractions can vary. You can
start out in a lot of pain or with some
mild cramping. Some will feel like mild
cramping with your stomache tightening
slightly. Some will feel like severe
menstrual cramps and your stomache will
feel very tight.
