How do you time true labor contractions?
You start the timing at the begining of one contraction until the pain stops, and time how long it lasts. This shows how long the contractions are, but in order to get the correct time apart for each contraction you time from the beginning of one contraction to the beginning of the next. This will give you the correct length of the contractions and the correct time for how far apart the contractions are getting. You need to be sure to keep a timer going, and to write all of the times down as soon as you begin your contractions. Be sure to take this information to your hospital or midwives when you go to give birth, they will need to know the timing. - annonymous (information received via a Pregnancy class in Texas)
What are fake contractions called?
There are no "fake contractions," except when women pretend to be in labor. There is false labor, which is contractions (usually mild and irregular) which do not change the cervix. (Labor is defined as progressive change--dilation and effacement--of the cervix.) Braxton Hicks contractions are real contractions, but very irregular. They can occur any time after 32 weeks of pregnancy, and are usually no more than 2 to 3 an hour.

How do you count contractions on a OB Strip?
To count contractions on an OB strip, identify the graphical representation of uterine contractions on the strip, which typically appear as peaks. Measure the duration of each contraction from the beginning of the peak to the end, and note the interval between the start of one contraction and the start of the next. Count the number of contractions within a specified time frame, usually over 10 or 30 minutes, to assess the frequency. Make sure to also observe the intensity and regularity of the contractions for a comprehensive evaluation.
