Anyone NOT having contractions?

I'm 38w3d and only having occasional BH, not at all painful. But this is my first, so it's not surprising. You're not alone, though.

If you are, so am I I have had a few decent ones just in the last 24 hours, but really just BH I think. The only "yay" moments I have are cervical twinges. And I'll be 38w on monday!

I have only had one, and it was more of a cervical twinge. Haven't even felt any BH... Glad I'm not the only one.

Me too! I'm 37w3d and haven't felt too much. Up until last night, I only felt very mild, occasional BH; last night was the first time I felt anything that was more than mild and fleeting (and it wasn't much to write home about, anyway). And just the occasional cervical twinge...

You're not alone!

Phew, I feel better

This is my second but I had a c/s with my first at just a few days shy of my EDD, and I didn't go into labor at all beforehand. I never even felt a BH with him. Now that I'm planning my HBAC I have this inane, illogical fear that I won't ever go into labor LOL.

I completely understand! My first was an induction for pre-e at 40w0d, and my second was a 41w c/s after prolonged ROM and no--I mean NO--labor. Well, I was contracting about every 20 min for the last 18 hours of it or so, but I slept through them, so that tells you how "real" they were.

I am really trying to use affirmations to keep myself in the right head space: "My body knows when and how to birth a baby." "Labor will begin when my body and my baby are ready." "I am whole and NOT broken." That kind of thing. My doula and I even have my DH trained to say, "Well, when he comes on his own..."

We WILL birth these babes!!!

38w1d here and maybe a few bh every once in a while and for some reason on midwife appointment days I get a little crampy, but that's it. I think I'll be going past my due date once again...which is fine with me

I'm not having contractions. Not even BH... I'll probably just be pregnant forevever

Actually I may have had one BH contraction about a week ago when we went on a really long walk. But I didn't even notice it until I was feeling my stomach from the outside, I couldn't feel it internally at all. Not sure if that was really a contraction or not.

I'm only just over 35 weeks, and nothing here yet to indicate labor anytime soon. Well... I have been fighting a cold, and sneezing or coughing was making me wonder if my water was breaking at first, then I figured out it was just... well... that's a whole 'nother thread of things that you don't realize happen with subsequent pregnancies!

My water broke with my first at 37w1d and I had never felt so much as a BH before. She was born 10 hours later.

This time I'm feeling crampy with the occasional BH. I'm 37 weeks today and hoping the full moon will get things going on Tuesday
