I've had a few in the last couple of days and they hurt and some were like a cramping in my vaginal area. But they always stop and it's not more than 4 in an hour. But is it normal for them to hurt and feel like cramping?

Don't worry, labor pains'll hurt worse =D See Me Now Posted at 7:55 pm on Dec. 31, 2008 From the TV shows I've watched, they are just like real contractions with the pain and stuff, but they are different because they are non-productive (not pushing the baby out) and they are irregular in length and the space between them.
