I don't want to be a paranoid ftm but.....advice?!

OurJellybean · October 2011

I'm having really uncomfortable period like cramping right now ( for past hour and half) that has been in my lower abd all the way to my umbilical accompanied by lower back pain. The pain is dull constant but I get waves of where it hurts a bit more then usual. Position changes and even a warm shower haven't helped. I've had this a few times the last few days but it always goes away. I assumed it was bh's cuz I can't really measure it and it has went away in the past. I don't want to over react or go get checked if I don't need too so I'm asking what you guys think? Is this normal? I'm only 33 1/2 weeks. thanks

I think you need to call and get checked out!

Yeah, I'd call as well. At least talk to the ob and see what they say. They may not be concerned since it's not timeable, but my doctor said to take those accompanied with back pain seriously.

I would definitely call the Dr. if I were you.

Like the others said, call your doctor! I experienced the same symptoms and it ended up being a kidney infection. You just never know!

I would call just to make sure. It will put your mind at ease talking to a doctor.

Def call, some people don't feel contractions the same way others do, and that could be what it is even if they aren't timeable.

I would say you are fine and to not worry...I get these ALL THE TIME...and they get worse and earlier with each pregnancy.

Go get checked. BHs don't typically have back pain associated with them.

Thanks for the advice guys. They eventually went away although not 100%. worse cones to worse I work one floor directly above l&d. Sometimes I think nurses are there own worst enemies !!!
