Went into false labor on 1/14. Woke up at 7 am with loose stools & dull back aches. Tried to go back to sleep but couldn’t because I started to experience really bad cramping (which turned out to be contractions but i’m a first time mom so i wasn’t sure) & also started vomiting stomach acids :/

went on for 2 hours before I called my doctor cause initially I thought it was food poisoning or something but me & the entire family ate the same meals the day before. Was told to head to L&D, turned out they were contractions but only “mild” ones which tells me I need to mentally prepare for severe ones lol. Had to get 2 cervix checks which sucked, but I hadn’t dilated at all yet so I was able to go home.

Was told my body is preparing for her arrival so my february baby could end up being a january baby.

anyone else experiencing something similar?
