Help: contractions? Or just bad back pain?

Question

Okay so since the middle of the night last night I've been having really intense off and on back pain. This is what I have tracked today. It gets really strong and tight and then releases. Is it a contraction? I know there is not enough consistency yet but just curious.

Any ideas for a little relief?

Answer

It could definitely be your body practicing. I have been getting them and had horrible back labor with my son so I'm assuming this baby will be the same. If you have an appointment soon I would ask your doctor!
