Contractions AND gas?  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
So ever since my last post I've been having pretty frequent BH, some occasionaly lower backaches, and an achiness in my abdomen. Well, I just went for a walk around our field and got lots MORE BH, and by then end of my walk they were painful, just like gas pains, and also some back pain. Well, I DID end up passing some gas shortly after I got home, but it's still slightly painful/achey. I know that nearing labor can cause disgestive issues as the body prepares, but is it possible for contractions to feel like gas pains but also be productive even if it really is just gas too? Do I make ANY sense? I am so ready to go into labor, can you tell? At least SOMETHING started happening tonight. With DD I never felt anything like this and was induced, to it's at least fun to be occupied with "possibilities" this time around, even though I'll probably be the last one here to go.

this has been my problem the last few nites. i have been taking fiber pills. it helps a little. i thought for sure i was having the baby. no such luck.with my last birth right before i delivered i felt like i had to crap really bad. i remember thinking to myself oh no! now is not the time to have go . but it was actually time to push. this is also my first pregnacy to experiance braxton hix.they can be quite intence. it gives me hope that i will deliver a little early this time. i was late the other 3 times. i guess only time will tell.

I get crampy pain I would swear was early labor, but then I poop. It still aches for a little while afterwards, but then passes totally. I don't know if any of that is productive.
