With me I had Labour all in my back. whihc tighten across my abdomen. which was really bad. sorry to say it felt like I was on the edge of death pain. I had maybe a break every 3 minutes and then it came back and would last long. from the time my labour started. must say the pushing was all fine had hardly any back pain with that. Good luck. Hope your baby will be born soon

Contractions for me felt just like Braxton Hicks only with painful cramping and lower back pain. I remember when labor started with my first baby I kept thinking, "Man! I keep having these gas pains with my Braxton Hicks!" Lol! I didn't realize it was labor! :p

True labor contractions for me came in waves. Hard to explain, but basically my uterus would start contracting and there would be about 4 waves, and it got tighter and more painful each wave til the 4th wave hit then it would slowly relax for a few minutes til they started again

If you want help going into labor try yoga ball, bumpy car ride, sex, pedicure (heard it works sometimes), walking/hiking. It'll happen though. Good luck :)

To be honest during my second delivery I was scheduled for induction went in when I was suppose to but was told I was already in labor. Funny thing was is that I didn't notice anything different I wasn't feeling the contractions when I went in but was dilating and thinning out so labor could really start at any time.
