Every women feels them differently. Mine started out feeling like menstral cramps. They were 12 mins apart and concistantly got closer together. For me they did not feel painful until I was dilated to an 8. I only felt pain in my lower back but my son was face up and had his chin upwards so I had back labor. Braxton hicks just feel like a tightening of the abdominal muscles to me.
Contractions
I'm 34 weeks and I just want to be prepared. What do real contractions feel like? How painful are they?
