Correct Answer: D
Rationale: False labor, also known as Braxton Hicks contractions, are contractions that are irregular and do not lead to cervical dilation and effacement, unlike true labor contractions. During false labor, contractions may feel intense when walking, but they do not become progressively more intense over time, as is seen in true labor. Additionally, false labor contractions do not typically result in bloody show, which is a sign of impending true labor.
