Just a vent really, i have had tightenings and period pains on and off for about a week now, they have been quite painful at times but never progress into anything and it's driving me mad!!
Anyone else?

Happened to me 5 days before labour.. Every 10 minutes terribly painful braxtons, then suddenly wham full blown contractions every 2-3 minutes.
Good luck

I'm glad someone's posted about this. I've had period pains for the past 3 days now, mostly with Braxton Hicks, but sometimes just there in the background as an ache. Today my back started aching too, but the period pains today seem to be more there all the time rather than on/off.

I also had quite a few sharp pains up my lady bottom today.

It's really starting to annoy me now, I just wish I knew what was going on.

Ooooh me too! Are these Braxton Hicks then or just really annoying weirdness?
(And hippieshake - I have the lady bottom pains too! So relieved you mentioned it!)
