Is it strange that I don't remember what contractions feel like?

Question

It's been almost 7 years since I had my first son. When the doctor asks me if I've been feeling some contractions, I can't give a straight answer. I've been feeling pretty bad for the past hour. Tummy pains, some tightening, pressure in my back/butt. I don't need to use the restroom or anything. Surely those are Braxton hicks? 😕

Answer

I'm in the same boat. 8 years since my son and I'm assuming the same thing.

Answer

Its been 8 years for me & I definitly forgot.. So im sure it isn't weird.. May not be completely normal, but we are expectant mothers we tend to forget a lot!

Answer

Strange?  More like a blessing!!!!!

Answer

5 kids.... My contractions and labor ing pains.... All different!!
My first two kids were easy peasy! My third one I had to ask a nurse how to push. She was like I thought you had two kids?? Uh yeah but they weren't this hard to get out!! And she was smaller than the first 2!!
Number 4 aka the Sasquatch was such a relief of pressure as soon as her giganto head delivered. Number 5 was easy and uneventful.
