Am i going to go into labor soon?

Question

i have been having mild cramping and pressure in my pelvic area and i have been having some bad back pains off and on. Is this labor? or a sign i am going into labor soon?

Answer 1

If its labor the contractions will be regular..like 10 minutes apart and very painful. Sounds like braxton HIcks contractions..practice contractions..they can last a while and be aggrevating..I've had them for weeks and the back pain. So if you arent having regular timed contractions it sounds like just the normal stuff..sorry

Answer 2

How far along are you? Everything you describe sounds pretty common in the last few weeks. There is no certain way to be 100% sure that labor is on its way unless your water breaks, or your cramping is getting more painful and closer together.

Either way, the time will come when it has too....good luck!

Answer 3

depends how far along you are as i have all those symptoms an i am only 33.5wks an im no where near labour...

at 36wks i would say not yet its just your body getting ready...

Answer 4

You could be going in to labor soon keep timing you pains and try and get some rest you'll need it!  Good luck :)

Answer 5

yes it is labour congrats
