33 weeks and contracting?

Question

I’m 33 weeks today and for the last few hours I’ve been having what I think are contractions. They’re not overly painful but definitely uncomfortable. After I had quite a few I decided to track to see if there was a pattern to them, and this is what it looks like so far. I’ve changed positions, moved around and frank water but still experiencing this “sensation”.  Do I need to call the doc if they’re not painful?

Answer

Definitely call the doc, with both my kids my contractions were not painful at all until I was over 5 cm.

Answer

I would. Mine were not painful at all with my 2nd and I went to the hospital when they were 10 minutes apart… by the time the dr checked me I was 9 cm dilated

Answer

Braxton hicks or not if your having regular contractions or more than 6 in an hour you should call up and get checked out!

Answer

You’re probably ok if they’re not painful, but you can always call your doctor to make sure. Is this your first baby? With my first two babies my Braxton Hicks never hurt, but I’ve been having a lot of Braxton Hicks this pregnancy and they hurt a lot more. My midwife said taking a bath and relaxing helps.
