Do These Look Like Real Contractions?? Posted: 02-25-06 21:35pm
I've been timing my contractions the last
little bit...And they're not exactly
steady (ie. Always every 10 minutes)
but they've all been 10 minutes or
less...I haven't gotten up yet to move
around because I am afraid it will stop
them. Lol.
i had a bit of back pain with the first
one...But these ones just feel like my
abdomen is being squeezed by some giant
hand and i'm going to explode. They
kind of hurt...But not really bad...I'm
guessing it it's real labour it will get
worse later...Lol
anyways just wanted to know what you guys
thought, i'm just to excited and hopeful
to really get my hopes up...Lol!
I guess what i'm asking is does it matter
that they're kinda jumpy but under 10
mins?
Thanks I went to the hospital, and I am
having steady contractions but they're not
strong enough yet so they sent me home.
The nurse said I am still a 1-2 cm dilated
(i was one cm at 34 weeks and my doctor
said I was almost 2, two weeks ago) but my
cervix is really thin (about 70-80%) and
so she asked me how I felt about coming
home and advised me too because she thinks
this may be my last night with a good
sleep (i hope she is right!!), she also
said that she thinks once I start going
into more productive labor that it'll
progress really fast (i hope so!) lol...So
I am just waiting now...I hope when I wake
up in the morning I am still having
contractions (i've been home for an hour
and still getting them). Just thought i'd
update you guys :)
