Is this it?! 😁

Question

I've been awake since 3 am with what felt like intense period cramps and lower back pain. Also felt like I had to poop. I started timing them and they were consistent for about 30 minutes, then not. Then consistent for another 30 minutes.

I got out of bed about 30 minutes ago and had a bowl of cereal and then immediately had to poop.

I just feel different and off- could this be labor?

Im so scared to go to L&D and have them send me home. Also worried about waiting too long ha!

I have my 39 week appointment this afternoon so hopefully I will get some answers then!

Answer

I was told not to go in until I can barely take the pain. Specifically, I can't speak through a contraction, and I've lost my sense of humor. Feel like I lost my sense of humor last week, but that's beside the point I guess.

Answer

Same here:(!!! I don't wanna go to l&d yet until I can't handle the pain!!! If only my water broke that would have made my life easier.
