thoughts? on contractions due 10/18

Sarah • Mom to a toddler girl via ivf. Pregnant with baby number 2!

i never got to have natural labor with my first since i was induced, but this time I’m tracking what feels like pretty consistent contractions, they are not painful but take my breath away sometimes definitely more strong since the intermittent ones last week. i only recently started feeling cramping (cervical change likely) this morning so i’m wondering if i should still hold of until water breaks or other sign…

TIA!!
