This is my second child. My due date is 8/7 but I have a scheduled c-section on 7/31. My first was a late preterm baby. I have been having BH contractions since 22 weeks so I’m used to those.

But last night, I started having more painful contractions, every 2-5 minutes apart. My BH have done this before so I drank water and rested. Although these were more painful (I couldn’t sleep through them), they still did not feel like labor I’m used to. They started around 8pm and sometime around 4pm, they stopped. I’ve had just a handful since then. I guess my body is just getting ready? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Determining when to go in when you’re having a c-section is hard since I don’t want to labor too long.
