Im in my last month now and getting some tightening feeling sometimes. How do i know if these are real contractions or just the practice ones? dont want to run to hospital for nothing na.
Beti, jab pet akadne lage aur dard ho, jaise period ka dard hota hai, aur woh ruk ruk ke aaye toh samajh lena. Pehle thoda kam hoga, phir dheere dheere tez hota jayega. Tabhi doctor ke paas jaana.
From my experience, actual contractions felt like really strong period cramps that would tighten my whole stomach and then relax. They weren't just a mild ache; they had a distinct start and end, and they definitely got more intense and closer together as time went on. Keep an eye on the pattern.
Even though I had a C-section, I did experience some contractions before. They usually feel like a tightening or hardening of your abdomen, and they can be uncomfortable. The key is if they become regular, intense, and don't go away with rest. That's when you should definitely inform your doctor.
My saas told me that contractions are different from normal aches. They come and go, like waves, and make your belly hard. She said to time them with a watch – how long they last and how far apart they are. If they get regular and strong, that's when you call the doctor.
Contractions are like strong cramps that make your entire abdomen tighten up, then relax. The main thing to notice is if they become regular and start getting longer, stronger, and closer together. That's your body preparing for labor! Just focus on timing them, and keep your doctor informed.
Okay so, real contractions feel like your whole belly gets super tight and hard, almost like a really strong period cramp, and they come and go in a pattern! You can even time them from start to finish. If they get stronger, closer, and longer, then it's go time! ✨👶
