about 15 minutes ago I got this slight feeling down there like a period cramp (mild) and it grew a little, then I got the senstion that I needed to poop. I sat here thinking to myself, "do I need to go to the bathroom?" Then before I could get up to go try to go #2, the pain went away. I am waiting to see if it returns.... Or see if I end up going #2 sometime today.
I didnt happen to notice if my tummy felt hard while this was going on... It was the weirdest thing. I hope it was not a contraction... DHs worst fear is me going into labor early and having baby in the NICU.
Re: I think I had a contraction?
Those sound more like real contractions to me. BH never gave me any pressure like you're describing. That only came with real contractions and real labor.
Of course, you can have just one or two real contractions every once and a while that don't go anywhere. Just keep an eye on things and see if they get time-able and stronger, if it's real labor you'll know.
