BH Length

kristen.robel

Hi all.

I am 40+ weeks pregnant.  I have been experiencing BH contractions for a couple of weeks now.  I have been timing them for the past couple of days and they have been about 1-2 minutes long.  I knew they were BH because they weren't increasing with intensity, stayed the same length of time (sometimes 10 minutes apart, sometimes 5 minutes apart) and would go away for a few hours and return.

 I just went online and read that BH contractions are actually supposed to be about 30 seconds long.  

Is anyone else experiencing BH contractions that are 1-2 minutes long?

Today I have been in complete and utter misery with how often the BH contractions were hitting.  Even now I am trying to sleep but the baby is rolling around like crazy and it feels like he's trying to scratch his way out.   I am so ready for this pregnancy to be over with!!
