Braxton Hicks????
Hi ladies, so the past day or so I've been having pretty severe cramping. It's very low, where you'd get period cramps. Last night no matter what I did (moved positions and even took a shower) they wouldn't subside. I finally was able to fall asleep and didn't wake up until this morning, but now they are worse. I have Endometriosis, so cramping during my period would always be very painful, but this was worse. I also felt tightening in my whole belly. No bleeding or any different discharge or fluid. I'm 31 weeks and 1 day. Baby girl is in the frank breach position and my placenta is anterior. Just very nervous as to what's going on because it's still early to deliver. First time mom. Help!!😕
Update: I called my doctor that next morning and she sent me right to labor and delivery. They hooked me up to the non-stress test monitor and took a urine sample. They are checking for a uti (just waiting for results). No real contractions (they would have shown up on the monitor). She also did a pelvic exam and I'm not dialated, which is good. They told me I'm most likely dehydrated and they sound like Braxton Hicks. I'm still having them, yet not as frequent. Every day is different!😩
