Labor?

Question

Feeling constantly crampy, radiating to my lower back, with consistent stomach tightening. Everyone says real contractions will bend you over with pain, but I have a really high tolerance, so even though this is uncomfortable, it's not killer or anything yet. Does this sound like real labor? Had membranes stripped for 3rd time today.

Answer

It could be. I had exactly what you had. My lower back was KILLING ME badly. Then 10 hours later I was having the contractions. Can you lay down? For me I couldn't lay down. I had to stand because laying down killed me. Make sure to time the contraction pains

Answer

I have an extremely high pain tolerance, but trust me, when you're in real active labor YOU WILL KNOW lol. May be pre-labor and your body gearing up for the real thing :)

Answer

Possibly labor contractractions if they don't go away despite changing positions, lots of water or warm bath. Mine were like yours this week which put me in the hospital. They weren't too bad but consistent and annoying. I'm only 35 weeks so the dr and nurses have me shots and meds to stop the contractions for now.
