Early labor?

Question

Hey ladies..so this morning my son was moving all over the place which is AMAZING! but I'm having these like period almost butt cramps kinda on and off I went to the bathroom thinking that would help and it didn't really. Do you all think this is beginning of labor call my doctor or just wait it out? Thanks comments please! Btw 32 weeks 3 days

Answer

Go with your gut. I went into early labor three weeks ago and they were able to stop it but it's still very scary. I went in and was 2cm dilated and 80% effaced. I'm on strict bed rest after being in the hospital for two weeks. I'm currently 31+2 and my dr's goal is to get me to 34 weeks.

Answer

Usually before you go into labor they stop moving or slow wayyyy down. If it keeps up I would call but it's probably just your body stretching out

Answer

Sounds like Braxton Hicks. If you have blood or your water breaks is I'd call in. Other then that you should be fine.

Answer

I was having period like cramps a couple weeks ago and my dr told me that it was Braxton hicks and that unless I was having 6/hr that it was fine.  You could always call though to ask.

Answer

My baby has been all over the place this morning I figured maybe I'll have a bowl of cereal and he will settle down nope still super active I have my check up Wednesday so I'll be asking about this. It's my third so and I don't remember my other two boys being this active

Answer

He/she could just be having an active day. Some days they will be lazier than normal. As long as contractions are not on a timed schedule, then you're fine. Try walking or cleaning, try to lull him/ her back to sleep :)

Answer

I get ramps all the time. They baby could be moving and in a spot that ur uterus doesn't like. True baby is growing and stretching. Braxton hicks. Dehydration. Or you need to poop and the baby is blocking it. I get cramps about once or twice a week lasting sometimes half the day. It also depends on if I worked out or not. Working out good be me more cramps the following day. Good luck!
