Maybe.. wait and see if something pops out.
You could be having what they call braxton hicks contractions...this is your uterus preparing for your baby to be born...Congrats on your pregnancy! Or you could be going in to Labor!
Yes, it is normal for contractions to be spaced 15 minutes apart and not cause significant pain, especially in the early stages of labor. Early contractions can feel more like tightening or mild cramps rather than intense pain. As labor progresses, contractions typically become closer together and more intense. However, if you have concerns about your contractions or any discomfort, it's always best to consult with your healthcare provider.
If your contractions are three min. apart then you probably already are in labor especially if you are already dilated and 80% effaced. If the contractions aren't regular then you aren't in labor but if it turns out that your not then you will most likely be going into labor really soon.
Contractions can start two weeks before the due date to two weeks after. Contractions are only the first steps you should contact your physician to determine how far apart they are and what the next steps are. Yes, you should definitely call an ambulance. Contractions can lead to labor so you shouldn't take them in a non serious manner.
It is possible that your cervix will never dilate and therefore you need to have a c-section.
normally is 5 mins, but you can go eairler depending on what your doctor says and if your water has broke, also it depends on how far you are Dilated.
Fracture
Are your contractions regular, meaning, have they been 3 mins apart now for the last hour? If they have been I would say your in labor and to go to the hospital.
Should be right after, since normally water breaks after you feeling contractions in minutes apart as sign of early labor phase
I bet by the time you read this answer you will have delivered.
Yes, experiencing Braxton Hicks contractions for an extended period, especially at 36 weeks, can be normal as your body prepares for labor. These practice contractions can vary in frequency and intensity, and some women may also experience lower back pain during this time. However, if the contractions become more painful, regular, or are accompanied by other concerning symptoms, it's best to consult your healthcare provider to ensure everything is progressing normally.
