What do contractions feel like??

FTM here, having some cramping type pains that feel different to my usual braxton hicks and pain in my back Just wanting to know if what I’m feeling correlates with contractions!! Been losing my plug slowly over the past week and my braxton hicks have been taking no prisoners either so not out the realm of possibility

Hard to say depends how intense they are. I get some bad braxton hicks. With contractions they will just get gradually worse to the point you won’t question it xx

Very possibly contractions, my contractions started small and built over time. Keep an eye on them and rest as much as you can, in case it is labour starting! Xx

I keep asking people this question and everyone says you will absolutely know the difference and know when it's a proper contraction 🙈 My midwife also said if it's a contraction it will take your breath away. Xx
