Am I being paranoid?

Question

Hi ladies. Not sure if I'm just being paranoid. But last few weeks I've been feeling pretty sick and my bowel movements have been more regular than they have ever been. Last night I was sick and now this morning I have been getting twinges (not painful) down below and pressure and now getting cramp/tightening on my upper stomach. Is this all normal? Or early signs of labour? I'm 36 weeks. FTM x

Answer

My bowel movements have really regulated too!!! Maybe even go twice a day now. I'm 35 weeks and feel those pains too . My OB said it's still just practice stuff & the nurses in L&D; said when I'm in labour, I'll KNOW. But everything kind of gives me pause, first baby and all!

Answer

Yep! Me too. I've been having painful BH for weeks. Apparently some women just get "lucky" and have them forever lol Sounds like yours are still BH, but I talked to my doc today and he said eventually they will become regular. You just don't know when, and when they are, you'll know.

Answer

I'm actually experiencing this at 35 weeks. Following. I woke up last night and I'm 98% sure it was just BH but they felt like a legit contraction. I even thought I was going to throw up. It lasted about 15 minutes and then stopped but now my muscles down below are sore and I'm crampy today.

Answer

Thank you both. Makes me feel better I'm not the only one. :). X
