long walk + pineapple core + sex = first contractions, but they stopped...

So, I lost some MP, had a little bloody show, and had my first contractions early this morning, and I got all excited, thinking FINALLY, some signs of labor/today was going to be the day.  But, the contractions have stopped now!  Man!  

Contractions, please come back! 

Is this normal?

    I had hours worth of every 6 minute contractions on and off for 3 days!  And they were super painful every time.  I hope things kick into gear ASAP for you!

    After a long walk, sex, pineapple core, and raspberry leaf tea yesterday, I was having contractions last night. Up until then, I hadn't felt any BH contractions my whole pregnancy (I'm a FTM). I got kinda excited. They weren't painful at all or even uncomfortable really, and I was able to get a pretty normal night sleep, but I think they continued throughout the night. DH and I got up early and went for a walk before he had to go to work, and the contractions stopped. I've only felt a couple more this morning. So I would say its normal :( But I also haven't lost my MP or had any bloody show. 

    Good luck! Hope you start feeling them again soon!

    This same thing happened to me Sunday to Monday and they were timeable contractions for 5 hours 8 mins apart.  Then they completely fizzled out.  and I've had a few a day and that's it. I know real contractions that lead to labor will happen eventually so I'm just waiting and working.

    A few days ago DH acted like he was trying to play with my nipple (I had a bra & clothes on of course) & laughed & stopped. I just looked at him & said, "Are you trying to make me go into labor?" And he got all excited b/c he didn't know that nipple stimulation can cause contractions. He's just like, "Yeah!! I know what we're doing on my next day off!!" I was just like, "Umm.....no." Lol! Then last night he mentioned it again. I told him knowing my luck either he would just make me start leaking (which I've only done once so far & it was just a little bit) or he would cause contractions that wouldn't do anything. So yeah, I'm trying to get him to stay away from them! But he wants the baby here NOW. And I tell him he's gonna have to wait a couple more weeks (I think I'll have to be induced). So yeah. :)

    Bummer.  Well, I'll hope this has done something!  I did read somewhere that if you have a lot of this prelabor crap, your real labor goes more quickly/smoothly.  Here's hoping for that for all of us! :-)
