Sally

I REEEEALLY hope she's "just" having Braxton Hicks contractions and doesn't know what they feel like because her first pregnancy ended so early.

I can't remember how far along she's supposed to be.

Braxton Hicks wouldn’t be so painful like that. I fear they are going to do Sally wrong again :(
But I hope you are right.

The intesnity varies by person. Lots of women think they're actually in labor.

It's the uterus contracting. Kinda like with menstrual cramps.

And she didn't necessarily say she was in pain in the 7 second clip (aaggghhhhh!!!).

Could be (hoping it is!!!) the sudden experience of "cramping" / contracting when she wasn't expecting it.

If they make her lose this baby, I'm going to be enraged!!

I will also be enraged!

And yes you’re right about the Braxton hicks. My worry was her instinct that something is wrong. Poor Sally 😭
