Yesterday (38+0 weeks), DH and I went for a rather long walk (3-4miles) around 3pm, then we came home and had sex around 7pm. We started a movie a little before 9pm. At 9pm I had a rather uncomfortable BH. Twenty minutes later, I had annother. The next one came 12 minutes later, then 5 minutes after that I had annother. We were watching a movie, and they remained at 5 minutes apart for the remainder of the movie, and got progressively more uncomfortable, to the point where I had a back ache similar to my period, but not down into my legs or anything. I could not find a comfortable position other than sitting up doing the "butterfly" stretch.
I ended up with a constant backache, with it worse durring a BH until I finally fell asleep around 1am. I woke periodically through the night, and they had moved around to my stomache. It felt similar to when someone rubs a muscle too hard.
This morning (up at 7am) I was still getting them about every 5 minutes or so, but they didn't hurt. Now (2pm) I'm just getting them when I move around.
Where these really BH contractions? Everything I've read says they shouldn't be painful, but this definitely was painful!
I'm drinking tons of water by the way.
Thanks!

Otherwise how are you feeling? It could be true labor. I've had some pretty intense BH but my actual labors always just hit me.
