Ladiesss. sorry if these are stupid questions. but i am TIRED of google lmao

quick questions.

How do you know if you are having contractions? is it different things or just cramping?

i got these lower back pains, on and off all day. no cramping. my stomach gets tight then it goes away. but i can’t sit too long. can’t stand too long. can’t lay down too long.

i know with braxton hicks, well the ones i’ve experienced, i get some cramping and a tight stomach. like a basketball.

I’m also peeing more frequently then before.

self inducing?. how and when can i start that! i do not want to go past 40 weeks 😭 no judgement but my body is TIREDDDDD. lol especially with these crazy painful backaches.
