Anyone know?  I'm in some serious pain right now.

I don't know that it would be any different.

Call if you're having trouble breathing/talking through them. Good luck!!

Then I guess how do you time regular contractions?  I'm actually having trouble thinking....

They will come and go.  I had back labor and it started as a constant back ache, but then became more timeable.  It will definitely have a start and stop, at least mine did.  GL!

From the beginning of one contraction to the beginning of the next.

I had back labor with both deliveries... It's quite hard (IMO) to time them. I waited about 2 hours and then headed to the hospital.  I would HIGHLY recommend getting in the jacuzzi bathtub i fthey have one (the jets hitting your back work really well)--I also found walking to help (until the pain gets too bad).  I started vomiting from the pain and then I got an epideral=works miracles!

Good luck!
