I'm 33+5 days and I've been having bad period cramps. In my lower stomach and back. Plus sometimes the tightening in my upper stomach. Its been happening everyday atleast once a day maybe more for about a week or so now. The pain from the cramping literally woke me out of a dead sleep today and it hurt so bad for a bout a hour and it finally slowed down enough I fell back asleep. Jw if this happened to anyone this frequently and if so when did u end up giving birth? Did you go early? I'm supposed to be induced at 39 weeks but was wondering if u think he may come by himself before hand. Also talked to my ob today and they said it if happened again then just to go to the er to monitor them.
