Could it be...

Well for the past 4 days I've been cramping on and off. It started only at night before I'd fall asleep and now its progressed to throughout the day at different times and this morning I woke up to it. It feels like menstrual cramps and lower back pain raidiating back and forth between the two. LO stops moving all the while its happening as well. Could this be early labor or something else?

Re: Could it be...

  • It could be early labor that isn't doing anything, but you should probably go get checked out since you're not quite 36w. Good luck!!

  • I have been having the same thing for about a week now. I have an appointment tomorrow, so we will see. Good luck!

  • I haven't had any cramping, but last week I had two times when I felt the same way I do when I get menstrual cramps. When I have my period, I tend to feel a dull uncomfortable sensation in my lower back (hard to explain). The same thing happened when I first got pregnant, except I didn't know I was pregnant at the time. I just started having all my usual pre-period symptoms but never got my period so I got suspicious and finally took the HPT. Have you been having Braxton Hicks contractions? If so, this could be more of the same since they come and go.
