Labour or braxton hicks?

Question

I woke up at 4am feeling very sick, ended up throwing up. Got back to sleep and was woken up at 6am with painful period like cramps, which also made it feel like I needed to go to the toilet. Im 38+3 could this be the real thing?

Answer

Thanks everyone! I went back to sleep just incase it was so I wouldnt be so tired and ive just woken up to nothing again! 😞

Answer

Have you lost your mucus plug or had any leaking? Sounds to me like they could still be Braxton Hicks. Those suck and can really confuse you. I would call a on call nurse to be safe. Most of the time you go in and they send you right back home. When it’s time you will know!

Answer

So it really looks like labor when it’s been an hour of what i see on the screen it’s time to call and go, you don’t have to be exact with how many minutes apart as long as it’s close to 5 minutes apart each lasting about 1 minute for 1 hour. Mine were never exactly 5 minute apart some were more like 7 or 8 but I was definitely making progress when I went in. Good luck 👍

Answer

You’ll find out soon if it’s real. Good luck!

Answer

I really don’t know I haven’t gone through that myself but it sounds like you should call your dr! I thought it was if you get 5 or more in an hour you need to call!
