34 weeks, cramps and pressure?

I'm 34+1 and all day on and off I've been getting period-type pains and the odd bit of pressure. Is this normal?

How are you doing this morning? Sounds like it could be contractions so worth contacting your midwife if they've carried on? But I realise its a while since you posted this so maybe things have progressed or stopped by now anyway.

Hope everything is OK.

I had a bath and some paracetemol and it seems to have calmed down. I'm still getting the odd dull ache but nothing like last night. If it was contractions would they have got more and more regular and closer together? I get bad Braxton Hicks when I haven't drank enough water and I felt really thirsty all last night so wonder if it could have been related to that and the pressure is just baby making his way down.
