if you were 30 weeks, having 'normal braxton hicks' for about a month

but a few days ago you started vomitting, then moved onto having a runny tummy and for about 4 days you had been having really bad stomach cramps and BHs all the time.

Ones that made you wince?

With DD i was in similar situation except I KNEW i was dehydrated as i couldn't keep water down,

i am drinking water fine this time and so don't feel im dehydrated at all, and am worried they will want me to stay overnigt on a drip again even though I am perfectly capable of keeping myself moist Grin

Part of me thinks its just a tummy bug - get on with it.

But the fact im 30 weeks and the bug is causing very strong BHs makes me think i should just maybe tell them (but whyy?!)

I would contact. If you're concerned, it's definately worth contacting. xxx

Yes, I don't think it would hurt to give your community midwives a call. Their number should be on the front of your pregnancy notes.

I am 31 weeks and have been having loads of BH contractions too, but no vomiting.

Give them a call, just to be on the safe side.

Best of luck...Smile
