Good to hear they stopped. I wonder if you might have irritable uterus? I had it with 3 of mine and from about 30 wks would have hours and hours and hours of strong regular contractions but thankfully no change to my cervix. It was always aggravated when i did too much so definitely take it easy and always go and get checked when it happens cos you never know when it might be the real thing or baby's in distress.
