I am 35+1 weeks with MCDA twins (1st preg) and have been experiencing increasingly more painful BH contractions (period-type pain, tight back, etc etc)over the last few days. I can talk through them but def need to stop what I am doing occasionally and wait until they pass.
I also have suspected Obstetric Cholestasis as my ALT levels are a little high and I get quite itchy each night. I saw my consultant on Friday to talk about the OC and he has booked me for an induction at 38 weeks (with the possibility of moving a little earlier if my ALT levels continue to rise)....and I mentioned the painful contractions but he seemed quite unphased by them.
In a very long-winded way, I guess I'm just wondering how normal it is to get these - what I can only assume are pre-labour - contractions and does it mean that things are likely to happen before I get to 38 weeks?
Thanks in advance!!
