Yes, I've been getting them for a few weeks now. I had them a lot with my son. I've also been dealing with an umbilical hernia, and the combination of the two isn't that nice actually. Blah. 9.5 more weeks....

Same as the others, the past couple weeks they've started up for me. Not painful, just that uncomfortable tight feeling--maybe a couple a day is all. I had them a TON with my first, so much and so strong my dr could see and feel them at my apts. He swore I was going to go early. Yeah, 8 days past due date we induced. lol. They annoy me :p

I have been having them too. I have had a ton of them today!!! I know it was because I was on my feet ALL morning but still they can be bothersome. I was out walking a townwide yard sale from 8 am until approximately 1pm but it was SOOO worth it! I got a whole Little Princess Nursery set (Lambs and Ivy) for $25! It has everything and it is just perfect for my little girl's room! Sorry, I am just soooo excited, it is in the wash now! :)

I have been getting some pretty strong ones and if I don't drink enough, they happen every couple minutes so I have to down a bunch of water until they go away.

i think i actually started feeling these in the past few days where i could pinpoint it... but they have been kinda painful. it was probably my fault anyway, i was walking around a TON at the fabric store and walmart and the day before i spot shampooed the entire house on hands and knees with a lil green machine, and cleaned everything like a crazy woman, dyed some fabric for the couch etc. by the time bf got home from work i was in bed unable to move as all my "bones" hurt as i told him. haha.

when i get them i just start guzzling fluid now and walk it off. she starts moving like crazy afterwards.

I have them more in the late afternoon and evening, usually when I have been pushing myself too hard and not drinking enough water. I am trying really hard to listen to my body and slow down when they get started if they get frequent.

I keep having them all the time. Sometimes I wonder if it is more. I can't get anything done :banghead: It seems like I have to lay down and drink water all the time now :( My poor boys are going crazy being stuck in the house all day, but no way could I take them out. DH has been great and takes them out, but I can't even clean. Then of course DH got the death look after he asked yesterday when my cleaning spurt was going to kick in- I told him when I was sure it was ok to clean until my contractions could deliver a healthy baby!!
