Contractions??

N

So I lost my mucus plug today and now a few hours later I’m having what might be contractions.

As a FTM I feel so unsure of if this is the start of it or if it’s just cramps. I’ve tried timing and it’s roughly every 10-15 mins and like a really severe period pain pretty low down. I have a good pain threshold but these do stop me in my tracks as it’s intense.

Sound like contractions or are they more an all over bump feeling? I haven’t really had the rock hard tightness in my bump with these.

I’m nervous!
