Contrax

When going into labor should my contrax be painful or just timeable?  The dr. has told me repeatedly that if they are 5 min. apart that I should call.  I am having them about 5-6 min. apart for the last hour but nothing very painful, just some cramping here and there.

    I'm pretty sure they should be painful and consistent. That's how it was with DD. EXTREMELY painful! I've been cramping like crazy for the past 4 days and even some painfully contractions like I had with DD, but nothing consistent, so I'm waiting for another sign, like some show or for my water to break. I'm ready to be DONE! I was already yelling at them to get out this morning lol

    if your contrax are constant regardless of whether you move or you switch positions, etc. Then it's real. I keep having false labor - no pattern, if I move I can cause the contrax to be delayed or stop altogether.

    At this point, if I can get to 5-6 mins in an hour I would call in and go.

    FWIW, some of my contrax have been painful and some of them haven't been and it's still not "real" labor.

    I am just hoping for some sort of sign I guess.  Yesterday I had lots of pressure on my bottom with contrax and lots of cramping then it stopped.  I woke up this morning and started having contrax so I am going to give it another hour or so to see what happens.  I don't want to waste my time in L&D if there is nothing going on.
