I had him on Wednesday March 9th at 1:13pm! Started having contractions around 6:00am 20 minutes apart. No joke! By 9:30am they were 5 minutes apart. Got to the hospital around 10:15 and the contractions were 2 minutes apart and I was 8 1/2 cm dilated. He was 8lbs 6oz , 21 1/inches long. I'm just over the moon in love! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2487505 Tue, 08 Mar 2016 13:07:56 +0000 regberadaisy 2487505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's how mine started with DD1! But "early labor" did last for about 2-3 days! Good luck! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2487457 Tue, 08 Mar 2016 12:18:28 +0000 fussygal 2487457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ChasingARainbow: Hoping all this work gets you dilated a bit more! :happy: :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2487449 Tue, 08 Mar 2016 12:10:08 +0000 schubr03 2487449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello! Just wanted to pop in to wish you good luck! I had early labor for a few days before I ended up being induced. I was 4 cm dilated for 3 weeks and 70% effaced. I felt timable contractions for a few days and actually thought I was in labor. But then they subsided.<br /> I wish you the best of luck! And I keep checking in on this post to see how things are going! Hoping it happens soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2487393 Tue, 08 Mar 2016 11:33:37 +0000 Boogs 2487393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like early labor to be. Some people can be in labor for days, so maybe that's what is going on with you? My water broke the first time, so I was clueless and in denial. Sent DH off to work only to realize later it had to be the real deal. Hoping you have your LO in your arms soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2487312 Tue, 08 Mar 2016 10:46:20 +0000 ChasingARainbow 2487312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fussygal: today I'm still feeling the same.

That gives me some hope that he'll be making his appearance soon. Since writing this post I feel like I had one good contraction. Lasted about 45ish seconds and it felt a little more intense then what I have been feeling around my back and stomach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2486964 Mon, 07 Mar 2016 22:25:05 +0000 ChasingARainbow 2486964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: no bloody show, but over the past two weeks I've had what I believe was the mucus plug come out. I do know that last week I was already 3 cm dilated and 60% effaced. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2486961 Mon, 07 Mar 2016 22:23:00 +0000 fancyfunction 2486961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes - I was crampy the week before with low back pain as well. Last Sunday I had constant dull cramping all day long and by Monday morning it had turned into timetable contractions - first every 10 min, which quickly progressed to every 4-6 min. I got to the hospital by 8 and H was born at 2. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2486906 Mon, 07 Mar 2016 21:02:22 +0000 skipra 2486906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ChasingARainbow: sounds like the start of it! TMI but any bloody show? I was crampy and then shortly after the show started contractions became more noticeable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2486896 Mon, 07 Mar 2016 20:52:47 +0000 ChasingARainbow 2486896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artsyfartsy: thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constant-menstrual-like-cramps-and-lower-back-painearly-labor#post-2486888 Mon, 07 Mar 2016 20:37:33 +0000 artsyfartsy 2486888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ahh good luck! I never went into true labor so I don't have experience. I hope this is it for you! </p>
