Timing contractions

Kattie

When you time your contractions, do you stop the timer when you're no longer in pain, or when your belly stops tightening? My contractions always go:

-Start with belly tightening

-Pain starts/pain ends

-Ends belly tightening

I'm just not sure when to stop my timer. There is like a 5-10 second difference depending on the contraction.
