Period pains feel like labour

[Motherofmonsters]

I think my first period since having DD 11months is on the way and it is so painful.

It literally feels like I'm in labour.

Is there anything I can do to bring it on hoping that might ease it a bit.

Not to alarm you but it definitely isn’t labour, is it?

Was thinking the same as pp... Any chance it could actually be labour...?

A bath to ease the pain?

Also ditto pp above - definitely not labour?

Erm..... first period for 11 months...

It’s not another baby is it?

Urgh. You have my sympathy. My first period after having a child was like being excavated with a red hot rusty spoon.

Funnily enough I thought I was pregnant a couple months ago and had a very faint positive in a cheap test but never had another one.

Im 99% sure it's just my period coming

Do you have a belly
Call 111

It Might be a baby

Ummm ha omg, is this going to turn in to a live birthing thread.

😳😳😳 I would alternate paracetamol and ibuprofen, get a hot water bottle and pray it is just a period! And of course see your GP if it carries on, are you breastfeeding?

No belly and I've been drinking tea. I went off tea completely in my other pregnancies

Go to Asda and buy a pt.
report back pls

My pp period arrived a few days ago and I was so nervous having heard horror stories but it was totally normal. It returned just 2 months after birth thou.

I do have a pregnancy test but would it even work if I was in labour

I'm pretty sure hcg can tail off towards the end of pregnancy....

Ohgod not another one of these threads!

Totally coming on to say erm really?

Marking my spot!

Dialute it in water

I can't actually be in labour, they'll be signs I was pregnant. I'm also breastfeeding to

Hot water bottle works best for me

Breastfeeding isnt an effective contraceptive

I don't have a hot water bottle but I think I've got one of those microwavable dogs somewhere so will try that.

My boiler is broken so I have no hot water so that's a bath out

Dialute it in water
