Last night I woke up to cramping. It was so strong and painful. This is my 4th baby so I have done birth 3 times and I can only describe this cramp as contractions; however, the cramps lasted much longer than how usually contractions start. This was the second time of this “episode”. I talked to my midwife after the first one, and she said it will be okay maybe I need to hydrate more and that my body knows what to do. I am pretty nervous I never had anything like this with my other 3 pregnancies. The only thing that’s different this time from my previous ones is that I have an anterior placenta and had a hematoma in the beginning. Otherwise, everything is pretty much the same aside from these strong cramping. Anyone had this or have it now? What was it? Outcome? I have an upcoming appointment so I will talk to my midwife about it and I will monitor it for sure. I am pretty busy and could be due to my hectic life with 3 kids and being in college currently but I don’t know. Thx ahead
