3rd Trimester

Consistent contractions/BH's at 35 weeks, anyone?

I have been having noticeable "contractions" all day...this is my second so I know what they feel like and they aren't painful or anything but noticeable and frequent, kinda freaking me out, even at my Dr. apt today she said did you just feel that contraction?  She didn't seem to think it was strange but I also wasn't expecting it to last all day and night...  anyone else experience this in the past or with this pregnancy?  Thanks...

 

BTW my husband won't be here for another 4 weeks so that's why I'm so freaked out by it...

  • I would call the OB if you're that worried. Not worth the mental stress..
    But I've had constant BH since about 34 weeks, maybe 33.. My belly is always hard.

  • I am 35 weeks and in the hospital right now due to contractions. Just stay hydrated. I mean drink a TON of water. Call ob though bc mine are still coming after meds and fluids.

  • I had the same thing.  Ended up having a UTI. now that its cleared up my bh our much less
  • Yep, I take meds to control them.
  • I started having real contractions at 29 wks when I went in to pre term labor. Those lasted for about 2-3 wks.

    After that, i would say around week 34 I started having what I assume were BH contractions pretty regularly. Some days they came and went all day long. They still hurt too and my OB said the only difference between the two are real contractions actually DO something and BH are just "warm ups" for your uterus to get in shape.

    Now that I am in early labor I have them almost all day and it sucks soooo badly. They aren't unbearable but they hurt and I want to just go in to active labor already!! I am already 3 cm and have been contracting for a week. No fair.
