Repost from pregnancy board: Not sure if I am having contractions?

I have felt really uncomfortable all day like he is really low and it kind of hurts down there when I walk. I've been having some cramping in my back and stomach that is a mix between period cramps and gas pains off and on. I also feel like I have to go #2 a lot (sorry if TMI). Does this sound like contractions? I am afraid I am going to miss it and not get to the hospital on time.

that's what mine felt like. Are they occurring at regular intervals? Like every 10 minutes?

It sounds like contractions to me.... Mine usually start radiating in my back, travel to my belly, while at the same time becoming really tight. The contractions should take a breathe away for a few seconds.

Good Luck!

It's early labor. I was told to wait until they get stronger and 5 minutes apart before going to the hospital.

I don't know how many weeks you are but I started early labor at 38 weeks and didn't deliver until almost 40 weeks. I had the same thing, period cramps, regular contractions, diarrhea, the whole gamut but it would always stop. I guess that's common for first babies.

I hope it progresses into active labor for you!!!

I was told they contractions should be radiating from your back around to your belly. How are you feeling now?

Have no fear once active labor begins you're not going to be uncertain. Unfortunately it hurts a lot and assuming this is your first baby you'll most likely have plenty of time to get to the hospital.

Re: Repost from pregnancy board: Not sure if I am having contractions?

It sounds like early labor! For me, it started in my lower back and would radiate around to my tummy... at first I wasn't sure if it was labor, but once it starts getting intense, you'll have absolutely NO DOUBTS. Trust me, you will NOT miss it!
