Labor or no?

Question

Has anyone else had Braxton hicks that were like this or am I in early labor?? Started around 430 this morning but didn't start timing until 750. I didn't think Braxton hicks lasted this long, but I'm a FTM so I don't know :)

Answer

No, way to irregular to be labor.
When they are 5 to 7 mins apart for an hour and you can barely talk through them. That's labor.

Answer

My ob told me if I have more than 4 Braxton Hicks in an hour to call them because if it’s Braxton Hicks you shouldn’t be continuously getting contractions so I would call your ob and see what they have to say. How far along are you? Also, if they are Braxton Hicks if you change the way you’re sitting or laying or drink water they should go away.

Answer

I’ve had two labors with irregular contractions. However, they were much closer together and much longer than yours. At least 45 seconds long, most lasting about 1 minute, some up to 1 minute 15 seconds. And never more time than 4 minutes between them. With having six kids, personally, it looks like braxton Hicks that you’re having. However, strong BH close to your due date can possibly change your cervix. Try drinking water and sitting with your feet up to see if they let up. If not, keep and eye on them. If they are consistently coming every 5-7 minutes, at least call labor and delivery

Answer

They can be real contractions without meaning you’re in labor. I have them all the time, sometimes due to dehydration.. and other things🤷🏼‍♀️
