Is this anything to worry about?

Question

I have been experiencing bad back pain and abdominal cramping the past few days along with diarrhea (went 8times in one day) I've been nauseous too. It doesn't get better it just stays painful and gets worse as the day progresses. There's also some tightening and a lot more pressure on my bladder. The doctor just said to drink more water but that's not helping. I'm 38 weeks.

Answer

Sounds like your body getting ready for labor!

Answer

Same here. Was really bad last night. Hope it does not come back tonight. Sort of feels like the same achey feeling you get with the flu. Totally had myself worried that I had caught the flu at 38 weeks.

Answer

If you're in the US start drinking some pedialyte  to avoid dehydration from the diarrhoea. This is quite normal leading up to due date and it's normally your body getting ready for labour. If you haven't got a fever or vomiting and your baby's movements are normal, then I'm afraid you just need to wait it out.

Answer

I have been in the same boat for the past week or so now. Not feeling good at all. This morning had some sex & now I feel tummy tightening& a bunch of cramps. I feel horrible. I don't know if I have a stomach bug or got a cold.

Answer

Answer

From what I've heard and seen from my other friends that sounds normal close to your due date unfortunately.

Answer

I would try taking a warm relaxing bath. If that doesn't help, go to l&d
