I’ve been having lower back pain since this morning. I thought, “oh I might just be pushing myself too hard” and have relaxed (albeit still picking up my very clingy 30 lb toddler). Since this afternoon, the pain has intensified, with a bit of cramping in the front and some ligament stuff.

-Mostly on my right side

-My baby is and will most likely be staying breach (heart shaped uterus, iykyk)

-Seems to stay at a 6 pain scale, but shoots up to a 7 every now and then

-Some Braxton Hicks, but nothing more intense or consistent than it normally gets

-Baby is moving normal amount and no concerns there

From what I’ve read, it looks like due to the baby’s position, gestational week, and the fact this will be my second delivery, it’s most likely not preterm labor. However, I am surprised by the suddenness of this pain, considering I KNOW the baby is still in the same breach position (I can literally feel the head)

Some advice/experiences welcomed! Anyone else go through this? When, if anytime, do you suggest calling the hospital?

Thank you!
