Question about labor - updated 5/11/08 I guess it really was labor!

I am experiencing this constant back pain in between contractions. Sord of like mentrual cramps. Is this normal?

I thought you were supposed to be pain free in between contractions.

I should add that this the VERY early stages of labor. I am having sporadic non rhythmic contractions right now.

Update: 5/11/08

Since everyone here has been so helpful throughout my pregnany, I though I would share my update with you.

Jonathan is here!!

Mommy and baby are doing well, but we had quite a scare on Friday. During labor the baby's heart rate dropped to dangerous levels. And I required an emergency c-section. They got the baby out in record time, but he was having trouble breathing and had to be ressucitated.

He is doing well. Breathing on his own and even eating. I am hoping to be able to take him home on Tuesday.

Pics will follow soon. I am waiting for DH to bring the camera wire to the hospital so that I can upload them.

I had one scare

I didn't have much pain in between contractions before I got my epidural. I'm not sure, maybe this is back labor, or maybe you are moving along quickly?

Good luck to you!Chat Icon Hope it goes quickly!

That's kind of what I am feeling. But I guess it's a little more like bad cramps.

If you feel like you are having back labor try and stay on all fours. It can help rotate the baby into a better position that is less painful!
