Period pains 36 weeks

[Sweetpea86]

Sorry I asked similar question last night.

I had some period pains but I have spd so kind of wasn't sure if it was just spd causing pain.

But my lower back it killing me tonight but not the spd pains it's defo period type pains. My tummy as also been tighten but nothing special I can't tell if it's the baby pushing out on to me.

Don't know what to make of it I feel restless and just down right uncomfortable :(

Is this just Braxton hicks?

Also to add I've had period pains on and off all day. Feeling exhausted

Erm, is your hospital bag packed? Because what you're describing sounds a lot like early labour. ..

[Sweetpea86]

It's kind of in plastic bags all around the house lol I best transfer it to one bag lol.


I'm scared

You ok?

It's more than likely these are BH but might be worth a call to the Midwives and explain the symptoms to them.

Don't worry you're going to be fine

[smallinthesmoke]

Don't be scared! Just put the things from the plastic bags together, like you say, then take it easy and see what happens. It might stop, or it might get going. Either way it's going to be fiiiine.

The period pains have worn off more dull now. But got a strong pain in my hip/waist. I think it could be just BH I'm only 36 weeks. I'm going to see how I feel over night and ring midwife tomorrow If I still feel this way.

I've had no mucas plug or water yet either.

I'm desperate for labour to come but the thought of it scares me at the same time.

If you called the midwife / labour ward, they would most likely ask you to come in to get checked out and will be able to tell you if it's labour from the CTG, also it may be a water infection which may need treatment. I'd call.
Good luck
