I know I should know this but....

If a CTG shows you are having contractions and not just BH does it mean you will go into labour early?

It's been 6 years since my DS and I can't remember a lot except I don't remember getting many BH.

Since I left the hospital Thursday evening I've been having BH on and off but what I thought were BH in the hospital was showing up as real contractions 2 minutes apart. Just wondering if all the tightening and stomach cramps are getting my cervix ready? Only askng because 34 weeks is a bit early and want him cooked a bit longer. Having ridiculous amount of pressure in pelvis too where his head is and get a lot of shooting pains that literally double me over.

Got my consultant appt at 36 weeks but wanted to see if any of you ladies have any experience of this?

oh you know ive just googled it and yes the ctg does show up contractions, but braxtons look just like mild contractions on it.

I was on ctg a couple of days ago and having braxtons at same time, and now i know that the moitor did pick them up (the bottom line is the contraction one)
