Contractions are close together?

Question

So I've been having contractions about every 7 minutes lasting about a minute long but they aren't really painful. Definitely are contractions though. They hurt but they are very bearable. Is it normal to have pretty constant contractions with little pain??

Answer

You could be in labor. Depending on your pain tolerance and your body, the contractions might not hurt. Early labor was like that for me, and my mother in law said with her first none of the contractions hurt until the doctor broke her water at 8 cm. I would call your doctor or go into labor and delivery if they're that close together.

Answer

I just called l&d because mine were 5 mins apart for 2.5 hours. Each contraction lasting about a minute. Mine were also clearly contractions but very bearable and not really getting any more intense. They asked me to take a bath and drink water and see if anything changed. Sure enough the bath made them go away! It doesn't hurt to call if you are worried. But drink water and try a bath if you haven't already ^^

Answer

I don't think so... If they're becoming regular you have to call your dr/midwife/health professional as it sounds like labour! Good luck X

Answer

I've been having very mild contractions for the past 4 days, every 2 1/2 min apart! Have been in the hospital several time for monitoring do to high bp and them wanting to induce. They said it was normal. They told me it was my body getting ready and helping me to dilate.

Answer

I didn't have pain in my first pregnancy until  like 3-4 minutes apart and I was already at the hospital

Answer

Not sure but my doctor said 5-1-1 call doctor and head to hospital. Contractions that are 5 minutes apart lasting at least a minute for 1 hour.
