It has the same effects as if you were actually going into labor. Basically it is like if you had horrible menstrual cramps all at once. Hope this helps.

I was curious to others experiences I went into preterm labor with my first, but luckily they stopped it in time, and I went on to have a full term baby... But I was asking because in most of the websites and things on preterm labor they say some may not notice the signs of preterm labor, but I thought if Its just like labor it'd be hard not to notice..lol... So, I was curious about others experiences.

I suffer in preterm labor on my two kids when I was pregnant. The pain is just the same in the real labor. You also feel that the baby is already coming out. Cramps in your stomach is like your suffering in diarrhea. There is a time that you wil feel comfortable when you change your lying position.
