Im 36 weeks pregnant and wondering what contrations feel like?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Feel like tight: Contractions feel like someone is tightening a belt around your waist. They typically last for 40-60 seconds. They can also feel like cramping, again, about 3-5 minutes apart and lasting for 40-60 seconds each. Hope that helps.
