15 more days! Getting contractions in about every 15 min for an hour then stops, heat flash during contractions, do any of you ladies have this too? Is it Braxton hicks contractions? Or start of the labor?

Question

Answer

I'm 37w4d and I've been having irregular contractions since 1am every 5-7-10-20min then stop and then start again.

I feel more pressure in my pelvis and my feet and legs are very swollen. I had contractions at 34wks for 3 days and they stopped. I'm already 2cm dilated and baby is at -1stage. I don't know if these are BH or start of labor, I don't have an answer for you now but just wanted to tell you, you're not alone'

Good luck !

Answer

I have 26 days to go and started feeling what could be contractions every 15 minutes too. I called my doctor's office and was told its more than likely braxton hicks and to call again when they are 5 minutes apart. These just feel different from the braxton hicks I have been experience before because now it's wrapping around to my back.
