3rd Trimester

Do you ever feel your BH in your back?

Today, I've been feeling pain in my back when I get BH contractions. Anyone else? I haven't had that happen before.

  • Yes! Today is the first time I've felt them in my back too. Very weird.

  • Usually they say that you shouldn't feel any pain in your back during a BH. If the pain starts in your back and moves forward you could be having real contractions. I personally have never felt pain in my back during a BH. Maybe you should call your dr?
  • Yes!  Pretty uncomfortable...I had BH contractions every 4-5 minutes for almost two hours Saturday afternoon.  I kept getting up and walking around which helped - but the back pain was pretty yucky...hang in there!

  • I havn't had back pain with my BH, just a lot of low crampies. But my lower back can hurt so bad I can hardly walk if I try to sit on the floor.....OUCH

    This.  I'd keep an eye on them.  The only times I've felt contractions in my back were when I was having pre-term labor with DD at 33 weeks and then again when I was in labor at 39 weeks.

  • no- those sound *real*.....
  • My OB told me that back pain with a contraction meant it was a real contraction. BH shouldn't radiate past your uterus.

  • geez! Glad I read this...I am having the same issue, but they aren't in a timed rhythm. Bad menstrual like cramps that comes in waves of severity but nothing on a set time....figured they couldn't be real - that and I'm only 36 weeks.

  • Those sound real to me. I would call your OB and give them a heads up.  They may want you to come in to the office to check on you or have you go to L&D.  I have had back contractions for almost 8 weeks now (early "real" contractions nothing new), but I had never experienced back contractions with DS1 or DS2.  So I guess I get to experience something new with this LO.
