Is it normal to constantly be cramping ?

Question

I legit feel like I’m on my period . I’m not bleeding but like what is going on and it’s not contractions at least i don’t think because it’s constant

Answer

Early labour did feel like cramping to me with my first but this time around it’s more confusing as my Braxton Hicks have felt like cramping too for the past couple of months!
I’d give your hospital a call if you’re unsure.

Answer

When I went into labor in 2019 with my son, I had no idea it was happening.. I laid in the bed all day with period like cramps thinking it was just a regular symptom of pregnancy. Finally my mom called and convinced me to go get checked and as soon as I was hooked up to the monitors I was showing constant contractions. It surprised me because all I felt was cramping but after being checked I dilated from 3 to 5 in about an hour and was sent to a labor room to begin the process of labor. So I’d definitely recommend listening to your first mind. If you’ve been having them for hours there’s no harm in going to get checked out. Better safe than sorry. Good luck mama♥️♥️

Answer

Can very easily just be your uterus prepping/stretching for labor. Depends on the strength of your uterus & pain tolerance.
I started with pains like that at around 34 weeks but since there was no contracting at the same time it was ruled nothing to worry about. If you feel like you would be looking for pain meds if you weren’t pregnant, don’t wait until your next doctors visit ; give them a call

Answer

Do they stop then start then stop then start?

Answer

I had constant cramping as well. In the past 24 hours its started on and off now and actually hurts. Takes my breath away, and i start sweating. Not sure if mine have made it to contractions yet or if its still braxton hicks. I'll be 37 weeks on sunday
