Should I go in?

Question

FTM here.. I’ve been having at least one painful sharp pain in my back a day. Nothing majorly painful about a 4 on a 1-10 scale. I have Braxton Hicks on and off all day. And have been really nauseous lately as well as I’ve actually puked twice.. my mother is concerned that they shouldn’t be so often should I go in or wait until next Friday at my appointment and ask about them then?

Answer

I don't know how often you're having them, but as far as I know no one here would be concerned if I had less than four an hour.
And the back pain? If it's only one a day I would say it's nothing to worry about either.
But you know your body best. If something feels off or you feel unsafe, then have it checked. You should always be able to call in and have a talk with someone about how you feel and from there they can decide if they wanna check you.

Answer

You can always call your doctor or midwife office. But generally, up to 4 contractions an hour is considered normal. I haven’t puked, but my nausea is definitely back too! Idk why no one warned me that nausea would return in the third trimester 🤷🏻‍♀️
