Contractions?

Yes ive hada kid already and not that long
ago it was august 2005 but I forget what
contractions feel like and they arent
always in one specific area. But tonight
my belly keeps getting tight , but im not
sure if im having contractions cuz I also
get like very uncomfy pressure/pain like
in my pelvis area. I actually had to stop
at th ebottom of the stairs for a min
after putting my son to bed to let it
pass.
Are these contractions? They arent really
painful but its just a wee bit uncomfy.
Im gonna take a shower though and come
back and see if anyone posted anything .

Sounds like it might be braxton hicks

How far along are you? I agree with kia
- they're probably braxton hicks. If it
was a proper contraction then i'm sure
you'd know, especially since you've been
there before. How the hell could you
forget by the way?!!! 
ouchie!

Maybe if you try and sit down for a little
while and put your feet up, you might feel
better, when is your next dr appointment,
maybe the baby might have dropped a little
more or you could have over done it and I
am sure that it is difficult with a little
one needing your attention, I know, I have
been there. When your hubby gets home ask
him to help out some.
Take care!

I'm agreeing with kia and ingi here,
probably braxton hicks. I asked the same
question before I had chu and everyone
told me that i'd know when I was having
real contractions. At the time I thought
it was lame but it's definitely true!!!

Thats what im thinkin they are, earlier I
was sitting there debating on whether to
call my hubby or not cuz I felt miserable
but thats cu zi felt hot and pukey on top
of the pain , but now its not so bad and
its not in any sorta pattern, tomorow I am
gonna try and take it easy the best ican,
I gotta go on base and pay a stupid
parking ticket cuz germany sucks. And get
joseph apples, ran out of the ones he
likes so he will have to do witha green
one for breakfast tomorow lol.
Even sitting sucks though because when I
get up it hurts my pelvis or cervix alto
sometimes, l ike I feel like my crotch
might break in half lol, it just sucked
that hubby is working overnight tonight of
all nights that I feel like crap but I
gotta head to bed soon anyways its after
10pm

each pregnancy is different and you might
not have had braxton hicks contractions
with your first pregnancy - but that
doesn't mean you won't get them this time.
Make sure to keep yourself hydrated and
rest.

Yeah , I sooooooo need to work on
hydration, I havent drank much water today
other then like half a glass this
morning.
Its weird u think u can use your previous
pregnancy to like know whats going on with
your body the 2nd time around but ya
really cant between the 2 they have been
totally different.
Ive heard the bh's get worse with each
pregnnacy too and they suck really bad on
this one but as far as I know im done
having kids , at least while in germany.
I think hubby may want another boy but eh
not anytime soon

Happy early .Anniversary! My .Niece by
marriage is over in .Germany, her husband
is in the .Army, he is a cook, she hates
.Germany too, their names are .Jason and
.Tammi .Mobley and they have two little
boys and want to try again for a little
girl. He is supposed to go to iraq in
.March, which is really horrible. Well, I
hope you get some rest and get to feeling
better! Does your .Hubby plan on being a
lifer in the military, I mean like
retiring from the military?
All the best to you and yours!

He wants to retired but he might either
become an officer in the army or switch to
coast guard or airfoce but maybe not,
depends what our next base will be like
after this one. Its neat that our
daughter will be born in germany. My son
was born in florida. It seems like the
end of this pregnancy is just going
sooooooooooooo fast.The past week when I
wake up though omg I hurt and my pelvis
hurts so bad in the mornings.
I should finigh my hospital bags huh lmao
I kinda got halfway through em and
stopped. Jordynnes is the only one
packed, joseph needs a diaper bag packed
for the babysitter too. Ifi keep thinking
I have time I will end up packing through
contractions and give birth in my car lol
its almsot an hr to the hospital depending
how hubby drives and the traffic. We take
the autobahn to get there

Let the doc. Know. I was having those
symptoms on wednesday and they sent me to
the hospital to have a stress test done.
Everything turned out okay and i'm waiting
for my results to come back to let me know
if I have a bladder infection because they
say that may cause that kind of pain as
well. I'm glad everything turned out
okay and it wasn't contractions because
i'm only 27 weeks.
