Contractions ?
So I am still having contractions. They are slightly stronger and this morning I had period like cramps for about an hour. When I had Damien I had an epidural at 2cm and never progressed past 6cm. If you can believe it I kinda forgot what contractions feel like (I guess good news for Momma's that are nervous about labor) I have an appointment with my OBGYN tomorrow morning so she can check my status and let me know whether or not I can return to work ( I am so not ready to stop working this quickly) I think part of me is in denial that this baby may very well come early. So my question is this: Did anyone have long term contractions like a few weeks and still carry the baby to term?

Re: Contractions ?
Not this past Thursday, but the Thursday before I had contractions and cramps for about 6 straight hours. But as you can tell, they went away and haven't been back- hence my induction this Thursday.

Re: Contractions ?
Stacey I started having contractions around 30 weeks, but they went away. However, I've been feeling the same thing yesterday and today. I'm due the day after you and I also have a dr. appt tomorrow afternoon. I would like her to stay in there at least 2 or 3 more weeks, but after that I should be ready!!!
Good luck! I hope its just our bodies practicing!!

Re: Contractions ?

Re: Contractions ?

I go to the Dr Tuesday so we'll see what he says.. Good Luck and Feel Good!

Re: Contractions ?
How far along are you?
I was getting contractions at around 32 weeks but it is probably because I ran out of gas and walked about a mile in AUGUST to the nearest gas station!
I had them a lot afterwards but they ended up going away and I had a c-section.
