29 weeks - aches

[ejclementine]

Hi, I'm 29 weeks with my first pregnancy. For the last day I've had a period type aching in my lower belly, as if I were due on. Is this just everything expanding inside?

Anyone?

I had this feeling at 24 weeks for a good few days, was feeling 'periody' and also like bump was bruised. A few days later I noticed it had popped again and got bigger so probably just a growth spurt? If you are worried though you should call your midwife but I was told aches and pains like the without any other symptoms was down to everything stretching.
