i think contractions are indescribable :/ i find them like slowly increasing tightenings, the pain increases more and more until unbearable, then slowly fade....correct me if im wrong, but im sure thats how they wer, seems a long time ago now though haha!good luck!u still marching around?my mw told me to go down the stairs like a crab, to tilt ur uterus/pelvis a different way to normal, this just sounds really dangerous to me though haha
