It's like torture! It's so disappointing when it turns out to be nothing ughhhhhh.

With the Braxton Hicks, it's just pressure. I've been getting those since my second trimester so I can ignore those.

About a month ago, I started getting that same type of pressure along with period cramp type feelings in the front and the back. I thought ok these are real ones, I'm finally starting to get ready!

Two nights ago I started having these awful, sharp (but dull???) contractions that RIP through my back. So bad that my husband started running around during the first one grabbing our bags (as if we didn't have hours to go even if it was 😄.) My reaction was so different from normal we both thought "this is it!"

Nope. Still pregnant. All these aches and pains and they just mean NOTHING lol I just wish I knew what "the real stuff" was so at least I wasn't getting my hopes up each time I get some new horrendous pain which turns out to not even be REAL labor pain.

I think I'm cranky today 😂
