I think I'm in labor

[mooliette]

I've had some pretty consistent braxton hicks (or what I thought was braxton hicks) contractions since 10:30 last night. They are anywhere between 5 & 7 minutes apart. The only thing I question is that they don't hurt. I seem to remember with my boys but labor hit HARD with both of them. Maybe I just don't remember the calm before the storm before lol

Needless to say I sent the boys to school and Ed to work. I need to go grocery shopping and have a few things to do around here. I didn't get very much sleep last night, I should probably take a nap

Ive been having the same thing for 2-3days...I hope its a sign of labor soon I'm tired...

Good luck Mama!!

Good-luck mamas!

Sounds like what I had last week. The contractions were 6-7 minutes apart but didn't hurt. Hope it's real labor for you. Happy birthing!!

Good luck everyone!!! I've still got NADA happening here, but I'll send all my best labor vibes out to everyone else!!

I'm also having a ton of BH that radiate down my inner thighs and into my back. It's very frustrating and confusing. Been going on for a few days. I'm physically and mentally exausted and just wish I had someone to help with the kids.

Good, strong labor vibes to everyone! I had some painful BH on and off this weekend but this morning I feel pretty good. I know how frustrating the wait can be!

[umami_mommy]

my BH are pretty much gone, now i am just having lots of prodromal labor.

yesterday i had 3 really strong contractions i had to breathe through, but that was it. then around8 Pm i had cxs ever 10 minutes for about 2 hours. but they petered out about 10 PM.

Hi! Sorry to hijack! I remember you from the February 03 DDC! Congrats on your new addition(well almost!) I don't know if you remember me, but just had to say hello! I too am expecting again late June/early July! Take care!

I just posted about this.

I've been having the same thing since this time yesterday afternoon. Some are painful, most I can't really tell are there. I didn't experience anything like this with DS #1. I had PROM with him and then full active labor started within 30 minutes. We ran some errands this morning and walked around for about 2 hours hoping to get things moving - but nothing. :

Good luck!!

I hate to be the voice of negativity but I've been having these for weeks on and off. Mine were right on top of each other with about a good 20 seconds in between for hours, then nothing for a weekish. Then they started again and have lasted for days, coming and going.

Who knows though? Everyone's labor is different. I just think it's cool that we are all having similar things happening.

I hardly even got BH contrax, so I can't imagine. Hang in there. The end is near.

I am so jealous! I am not having any BH really... and I want this baby out before my OB gets a chance to induce me!

Good luck labouring mamas!

[DreamsInDigital]

I'm jealous. I've got nothing going on. I don't think my baby is ever coming out.

[libragirl]

good luck, hope it's the real thing!
