Contractions?

Question

During early stages of contractions does it feel like baby moving and gas bubbles at the same time with a light tightening? Been having that feeling, very bearable, every few minutes and curious what it could be. FTM 40+6

Answer

I'd say it feels like an all over tightening of your stomach... Like she said when ur doing a sit up n holding it!

Answer

My early ones that didn't stick felt like super bad period cramps that covered my whole stomach and made it tight. The first contractions I felt that were part of my actual labor were like that but worse and they kept getting stronger and closer together

Answer

To me it feels like you are in the middle of a sit-up and your entire belly is tight. This is my second pregnancy and early labor has been different for both. So your early labor may not feel the same as others
