I've been having what I thought could be round ligament pain for about a week now. But the more I read about it, the less it sounds like round ligament pain. I saw my family doctor a couple days ago and he said they sound like contractions, but he doesn't do prenatal care. The reason I went to him was because I had to have a follow up after surgery and be cleared to go back to work (which I wasn't, due to these possible contractions)

I've been paying more attention to them as they are becoming more frequent. They come about every 5 minutes and last around 30 seconds. They are quite painful .. Feels like really bad period cramps. And I have a pretty high pain tolerance and went drug free with my son so I imagine these aren't Braxton hicks because I don't think they should be painful?

Do these sound like contractions? I am seeing the maternity clinic on Wednesday.. Is it okay to wait until then to get checked out?
