any thoughts..

Okay I think I noticed my 1st contraction at 242 today and they have kept up till about 5 (not frequent enoughe to time them, just uncomfortable twinges in the lower abdomen).. then we went to run an errand and they stopped on the drive, but started again in the store. I was good through supper and am now home and feeling them again, wether sitting, walking or laying. Also I feel the need to pee every couple minutes, even though barely any urine comes out.. now I feel like I need to poop (that could be the supper) I am also feeling it in my back.. any thoughts to if this is a labor sign, or maybe BH? I am 33 weeks and 6 days..

 

I'm no MD, heck, I'm not even a credible source of information in my own home on most days ( )- to me, it's always worth the call to your doc. From what my wife's OB has advised (repeatedly) it's not uncommon for twins to come a bit early; better to be safe and feel foolish for a little while (you will recover from that, I am well qualified to say from experience ) than to risk being wrong by assuming they are just BH contractions. Good luck

 

Some of those things really are a sign of labor. Have they stopped yet? Did you call your doctor? Just thought I'd check on you.

 

It sounds like it could be labor, I would go to L&D and get checked out.

 

Thanks all.. I went to bed and they stopped when I fell asleep.. none yet today, but I have a check up Tues.. I think something is up though.. maybe some dialation.. we will have to see. Thanks Again!

 

Thanks for letting us know! I was wondering how you were doing because I experience the same thing all the time, but I just let it go because they always stop. My doctor hasn't done any internals yet (because she doesn't want to cause me to go into labor before 36 weeks) so my first internal is Tuesday. I hope all these false contractions have made me progress at least a little!
