Re: back numbness?
sounds like the contracting uterus is putting pressure on your spine. i've actually heard of women who experience labor as intense back pain rather than uterine cramping-type pain.
how many weeks are you now... 35 or so? could this be it for you?!?!?!?!?!

36 tuesday , actually one month from due date today, BUT they are not getting any stronger at all, just tightening, so I'm thinking its BH's

Re: back numbness?
Could be the start...I can have contractions...real contractions..and not even feel them...the only way I know Im having them is b/c the outer part of my thighs start to hurt and ache.

Re: back numbness?
This happened to me 3 weeks before I went into real labor. It was pretty intense too, but they weren't getting any stronger.
I hope this is not the same case for you...but I ended up with back labor.

Re: back numbness?
I have this somewhat - not numbness but sometimes back pain with my contractions. You might want to call your OB as I know with increased fluid you can go early and I was told to call with regular ones which sounds like you are having. Worst they say is that it is BH.
Try increasing your fluids. You might end up with back labor if you are feeling things in your back.
