Question about labor and contractions?

I've been having contractions since last night. Nothing consistent though. They'll come and then go away for a few hours and then come back. They are generally mild but definitely a little more painful than they have been (but still they are very mild and more uncomfortable than anything). Is this the start of something? I'm so confused. I get braxton hicks but usually once a day. These are definitely occurring more frequently.

Sounds like something is starting!

Sounds like it could def be early labor. With DS, I started having contractions in the afternoon and by 10 pm I called my doctor because they were starting to become a little painful. Mine were somewhat consistent though.

Sounds like the contractions I was having at the begging of my induction when they insert the cervidil. They were pretty uncomfortable and painful at tines but were all over the place. It could mean you're starting to dialate and ripen a bit more an are in very early stages of labor. Good luck!!! Hope you have your LO soon!
