What Do Real Labor Contractions Feel Like?

What do real labor contractions feel like and how are they different from Braxton Hicks contractions? In labor the uterus is contracting just like other muscles in our bodies contract, but the difference is that we don't have control of it. When real contractions happen they will usually be felt below the belly button while Braxton Hicks contractions are usually felt all over. #childbirth #birth #pregnancy #lamaze #childbirthclass #doula
