labor

Heather

so I was nesting earlier today... did some laundry.. swept and moped the bathroom and bedroom and running room and kitchen... And did some dishes and cooked and cleaned the whole bathroom from top to bottom... And now I'm in bed and been hurting since 9pm with constant cramping and back pain... should I make a doctors app for tommrrow?? I'm only 31 weeks and a couple of days

I would say just rest momma! And take it easy the next couple days, sounds like you just over did it a bit

Drink water and rest. It’s pretty normal to cramp/get BH after a busy/productive day. It’s a concern when you are having contractions that are coming at a an interval that you can time and/or if the cramping doesn’t go away when you drink water and lie down after an hour

sometimes I do double shifts, 13 hours. At the end of the day I find I have cramping as well. I asked my midwife if I was over doing it and she said no, it's normal to have more cramping at the end of the day and to take Tylenol not need it.Call tomorrow to ease your mind but don't stress too much

Honestly the health of your unborn is very important , especially if you don’t wanna go into pre-term labor . I have a 2 yr old myself but I know how to still take it easy. You might have to find something less fun for them to do today so you don’t risk the life of your unborn

It sounds like you just overdid it and your body is telling you to take a break now. Of course, stay in tune with how you’re feeling and if you start having contractions or any other labor symptoms, go in. Or if you don’t feel better after a good night sleep and a day of rest tomorrow. When I do extra housework and running, i often feel it at night and have braxton Hicks way more than usual. The next day I might be sore but the BH are gone and if i take it easier than the day before, i start to feel better
