28+2 feeling crampy?

Question

Im 28+2 and feeling almost period-like cramps right above my pubic area and my back is really sore. I'm not sure if it's just how little man is laying or what, but it's kept me from getting a good sleep.

Answer

Update: After calling my ob, he told me to go to labor and delivery to get checked out. I didn't think it was anything major, possibly a UTI or just growing pains. My urine was clear, no fever, good bp, everything looked fine. They hooked me up to the monitors for about an hour and gave me lots of water to drink (I had already had about 32oz that morning). I had about 3-4 small erratic contractions, so they said I had an irritable uterus and they were going to discharge me. After the doctor left the room, my contractions picked up intensity and consistency. They came back in after about 20 minutes and did a cervical check. Thankfully, I was not dilating any. The doctor sai that I shouldn't be contracting like that, so they gave me a shot to stop the contractions. Finally, after 6 hours of being in l&d, I got to go home. The doctor told me to cut back on my activity as much as possible and to make sure I get at least 64oz of water a day (I usually drink about 80oz/day).

Answer

Mine is pretty constant and incredibly uncomfortable. It doesn't matter what I do, it's not going away.

Answer

I'll be 28 weeks tomorrow and I've been having a dull ache in my pelvic area too. It's not a cramp, and it doesn't hurt, it's just uncomfortable. It is worse when I have been holding my pee and then go to the bathroom, so I figured it might be from the baby laying on my bladder. I'm going to ask my dr at my next appt for sure. Does yours sound the same?
