Hi all,
Ok so I'll make it quick as poss! I'm 31+6 weeks preg. This is my 2nd, my 1st was born in may via csection and this baby girl is due in April.
I've woken up to some period like pain ONLY on my left side, initially i put my hand there and felt baby move maybe an arm or something! But couldn't get back to sleep.
I've now noticed that the pain comes regularly (5-10mins apart) and lasts for over a min, my belly goes hard and then it all stops again.
Could this just be BH? Or am i in trouble and needing to go in?
I'm lying on my left side, i haven't gotten up for a walk yet!
Baby girl has been fine, and was moving loads last night and early hours of this morning.
Any (non rude) advice is appreciated! Thank you x

Definitely ring in! With having a c section so recently you don’t want to risk a quick labour and having to deliver at home!

I think I'd call and see what they say. May ask you to go in and be monitored.
I was under the impression BH weren't usually regular/in a pattern. Whereas actual contractions were usually regular.

Call and see what they say

Id definitly call. It could be labour or it could be as simple as babys lay funny (god knows that caused me pain)
Best check really, good luck

Hi all, gave them a call they said to monitor for now!
Since I've been up and about they have lessened...so we will see.
Thanks for the advice ladies x
