Period like cramps 30 weeks pregnant

[bethabean]

Hi!
I am 30+1 weeks and have been having on and off period type cramps today which sometimes extend down my thigh too. Just wondering..is this normal or is this something I should call my midwife about?!
If isn't obvious, this is my first baby and if you go through my previous posts you'll probably see a pattern of me being unsure of what's going on

Oh and the pain is also in my lower back too

I would call your maternity unit emergency number just to be on the safe side.

I think I’d ring to mention it too as not sure. I’ve had some cramping at 18 weeks but it didn’t last long and I think often it’s ligaments stretching so hopefully it’s that but good to mention it anyway
