I am 38 weeks pregnant, at my last appointment a week ago I was 1cm dilated, 90%effaced, soft and up-close. The baby has already dropped and in position. A couple of hours ago me and my hubby done the deed and this time when he came inside of me nothing came back out. Usually it will come right out when I go to the bathroom and wipe. Now I am starting to have contractions about every 10 -15 min. or so. They started out really really soft and now they are getting a little more stronger. Not anything unbearable yet but getting stronger. They havent started coming closer yet though. Does this sound like some braxton hicks or that its the beginning of labor?
oh and the baby is moving fine as well..it hasnt slowed up or anything and also my pelvic bone feels like its broken..is that normal?

It's normal for your pelvis to feel like that. The pelvis opens up to get ready for delivery. For some women, it hurts all through pregnancy.
Your contractions could be labor. Just keep watching and timing them. If they get to be about 5 minutes apart, and last around a minute each, then call the doc and go to the hospital. If they're unevenly spaced, then it could be braxton hicks. Good luck!!!

A lot of people say that they went into labor after doing the deed. Sounds like you may be having baby soon. Congrats and Good Luck!!!!

you might be starting labor. But if that baby is still moving then don't go to the hospital until you have contrations every five minuts, or the baby stops moving. But it sounds like you did it. Congrats, and I would expect a baby in the next few days.

I dont think the fact that any of his "stuff" didnt come back out has anything to do with it but I would say you are definitally in real labor because just the "act" itself will cause labor to start, expecially if you had and orgasm because that will cause your muscles to contract which will start your labor... also, just because contractions arent regular doesnt meen it isnt real I had awful labor with my oldest son and my contractions never got regular the whole time...... Congrats and GOOD LUCK

Your birth process may be starting, but its not an emergency!
Stay in bed in the dark and try to sleep, you probably won't have your baby until morning, and you will need all your strength.
Women need darkness and privacy to help their pituitary gland produce the hormones that will increase the contractions etc.
Stay home until your contractions are 5 minutes apart for an hour. The farther you are along in your birth process the less likely they are to mess with you and screw things up for you.

ok sperm has a chemical in it like when they induce you. this can bring on labor especially while doing the deed. sounds like contractions if they are regular. your pelvic bone hurts cuz baby is settled in there. good luck sounds like you are going to have a new addition soon.

Sounds like you're in labor to me. My son wasn't turned when they induced me and his head pressed back against my pelvis. It flet like it was breaking into tiny pieces and being forced out my back. Get to the hospital!

You should have an emergancy number for your Doctor. Call it. I agree that it sounds like labor BUT you don' t know for sure unless you call your doctor and talk to him/her. Good luck and let us know how everything goes!
