Okay, so I posted awhile ago that I had this constant back ache going on ever since my NST this morning. And the nurse said I was having contractions.

Problem is, I don’t know what I’m supposed to be feeling. Like I don’t feel anything. I have this lower back pain that’s been constant though. And it doesn’t go away when I move or drink water. And I had this crampy feeling in my back as well as some weird pain in my groin area.

Is that what I’m supposed to be feeling? I thought contractions came in waves that were within certain time frames? I’m so confused.

The nurse was like, come back if your water breaks or they follow the 511 rule. But what am I supposed to be feeling? The constant back ache? Is that the contraction?

I’m only 2cm dilated and my EDD is March 12th.

Please help😅 I’m a first time mom and honestly I really don’t know if what I’m feeling is contractions or just a back ache from walking all morning.
