I am 37 weeks almost and i had really bad cramps from about 10 pm to about 3 I called er just to see what i needed to do she said take a loritab because doc put me on them for backpain and lay down see if they stopped.I am not having them now but with my first child once i started i went in labor and progressed along pretty fast.Has anyone every started having them and then they just stopped?If so did you go in labor within a few days or or was it weeks how long did it take you?

They could be Braxton Hicks Contractions see here http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/pregnancy/childbirth/156.html
I remember having them and its like your body is in practice for labour! Talk to your midwife!

I had cntractions that started 4 days before m son was born. Theystopped for a few hours then started again 3 times, but on that time they continued until he was born. What you are having sound like Braxton Hicks

same thing happened to me with my second one and i ended up in labor what a day. i was so mad at the Dr.we live two hours away from the nearest place to have a baby and they kept telling me that i wasn't having them and try ed to send me home. so we want to the store and i was having them so bad we want back about after maybe an hour and i had the baby about an hour later. so if you feel that you need to go in then go.

true labour does not start until contractions are coming at regular intervals that is for example every 3 minutes and are say 90 seconds long i was having contractions for 16 hours before labour started and to me mine felt like bad period pains.

contractions don't stop until the baby comes out,,, i was in labour for three days,, at first i didn't know i was in labour,, i called a friend and she timed the contractions with me on the phone,, when they were 5 min apart i went to the hospital,,, three days latter i had a baby boy,, he was stuck so i had to have him by c-section,,,

hi. yes labor pains can start and stop. but it usually means its not far off! if it feels like bad period pain acheing then its not labour pains but its your body getting ready, if you start vomiting then its definate labour!! so look out for that. u will know though they are alot worse
Good Luck!! hope everythign goes well!

child it all depends on that baby but when you're in labor you will know it won't be long, get your bag packed
