Are these contractions? Labor? UPDATE

Anyone at the end of pregnancy every hav a constant belly ache, really painful and gets worse every few minutes....it's around my belly button area, radiates to my sides and my lower belly. The belly pain is always there but gets worse every couple minutes or if I stand up and try and move...excrutiating, breathing in makes it hurt worse and breathing out does the same, it's so uncomfortalbe.....it's making me feel all hot and sweaty too, it never really hits my back more stops at my sides but the entire front hurts like hell and the top of my belly, he is still moving around. Increase in discharge too...the excruitiating increase in pain that comes and goes has happened twice now about 10 minutes apart. I thought contractions were supposed to be like bad period cramps, this is intense pain....

UPDATE: Just got back from the OB, definite contractions but they are still 10 minutes apart and apparantly not strong enough to cause any dilation so until there is some dilation I have to keep timing them. Might be a long night....

Sounds like contractions to me.

They can feel like bad period cramps - IF you're lucky. Most women would describe them as quite a bit worse than cramps Chat Icon

Good luck!

Sounds like it. I get extremely bad period cramps and I did not think contractions were anything like them. They were much more intense! Good luck!!

Good luck!! I've been having contractions every 10 minutes for the past two weeks. I got excited on Saturday when they were coming every 8 minutes. After 6 hours they spaced back out to every 10 minutes. Try to get some rest!! You're so close!!!

I kinda felt something like this earlier today! It stopped though!

But it sounds like you are sooooo close!!! I am jealous, today is my due date and it doesn't look like anything is happening for me today.

Good luck - hope to be seeing a birth post from you in the VERY near future!!!
