The Tuesday and Wednesday before I had lots of contractions (especially Tuesday). They were mostly in the late afternoon/early evening and went away by bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/false-labour-how-long#post-2273252 Tue, 25 Aug 2015 21:22:57 +0000 Torchwood 2273252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The entire pregnancy? I started having BH's around 10 weeks, and they were regular and timeable pretty much the whole time. They just gradually got painful on occasion, and eventually turned into the real thing. There was no clear transition. (Though my real labor contractions were actually more irregular than the BH's!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/false-labour-how-long#post-2273245 Tue, 25 Aug 2015 21:08:41 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2273245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you had false/prodromal labour (regular, non-painful contractions), how long did they last before you went into actual labour?<br /> With K, I think I had contractions every night for a week or so, but I can't remember. </p>
