Okay ladies, help a FTM out. I'm 38 and 1, and I woke up in the middle of the night with contractions every ten minutes, very consistent. I haven't been able to go back to sleep, but i have drank water, changed positions, and eaten breakfast with no effect on them. It's been 3 hours now. Some just feel like Braxton hicks, but others I have a slightly painful cramping feeling below my belly. I'm not about to go darting off to the hospital any time soon, but what do you think? Could this be the start of something?
