Should I go to L&D?

Question

My husband and I had sex before bed around 11 last night. And then again early this morning around 4. I started having what I thought were Braxton Hicks contractions shortly after... I began timing them and stopped after it started to seem redundant. I’m only 29 weeks, this is my second child. I’m still continuing to experience them... is it possible they’re real contractions or just a result of intercourse?

Answer

Based on the duration, seems like Braxton Hicks. Sex can cause that, so I wouldn’t worry too much. You can always call your doctor to be safe!

Answer

Thanks ladies!! I called and spoke with a nurse at L&D; and she just has me resting for the day. I still will have a few here and there but definitely not as many!! Thanks for the input and help in relaxing me 😊

Answer

No contractions don't go up and down. They get longer and stronger. It's Braxton Hicks.

Answer

This happens to me every single time I have sex . lasts literally like 7 hours and tapers off. if you're concerned , you can always call the doctor or head to l&d; :)
