Feeling pains today...TMI

That I have NEVER felt before!

I had my DD 6.5 years via c-section and never felt any contractions before having her. I had the c-section only 2 days before my due date but I never dialated or went into labor. I had the c-section because she was measuring big.

Anyway...I've got 2 weeks to go before my scheduled c-section this time around and holey moley I am feeling things I've never felt before!

Like big stabbing pains in my whoohaa along with lower back pains.

I am assuming this is what "contractions" can feel like for me...

They aren't all day long or consistent. It was after doing a lot of cleaning today and also after taking the dog for a walk...

But I have a feeling that I'm gonna feel a whole lot more of these before I actually have my c-section!

I get those all the time. They are different then an actual contraction though. I get those from doing too much usually as well.
When I was in labor with DS, my belly would tighten up and I would get a stong pain from my back all around to the front of my belly. A Menstrual type cramp, but worse. They started out 10-15 min apart and got closer and stronger as day went on.

I'm 10 days away and I'm starting to have contractions here and there. I might get 3-4 in an hour and then they go away. Some hurt pretty bad.
I think you most likely will be feeling some pains this time around. You never know, you might go into labor before your scheduled C-section.

That is very much what these pains were like today...strongest in my whoohaa area...but it went from my low uterus (like where I'd imagine the head is at this point, all the way around to my lower back. It was pretty crazy-stopped me dead in my tracks on our walk because I've never had pain like that before. I've had what feels like pressure and round ligament pain in my ****** before but never the pain that went all the way around to my back.

But...it did pass, so it's not like I went into labor. But I'm so uncomfortable tonight! Just when I thought I couldn't get anymore uncomfortable then I was...I definately hit a new level today!
