Since yesterday I've started feeling what I believe are the start of contractions. Haven't had many Braxton hicks my whole pregnancy. I'm a ftm too btw. I'm currently 39 weeks +1. I haven't been checked for dilation or effacement yet so I have no clue if I'm even at that point. But man oh man the pain that has accompanied the severe pelvic pressure since last night until now is insane. I'm unable to time them because I'll get clusters of cramps then be fine for a few minutes and baby girl wiggles around then BAM more crampy contractions. I haven't bothered with paying attention to "dropping" or if I have even lost my mucus plug because I know those dont mean labor is near. I am so dang tired but this pain is keeping me up cause I cant get comfy. We shall see what today or this weekend brings!
