34 week strong pain/contractions

When I stand and walk it's really painful, but it goes away when I lay down on my side. Seems odd.... anyone have anything like this?

    Is it timeagle and/or coming more than 4-6x an hour? Do you have to breathe through it? Are you drinking tons of water?

    If they go away when you lie down you probably need to drink more water and rest

    Sounds like Braxton Hicks. Those are False Contractions. If you can lay down, and it goes away, that's usually a sign of False Contractions. Drink plenty of fluids, rest as much as you can, and prop your feet up! :smile: If you are still worried, call your doctor up, and talk them about getting checked out.

    Thanks! I have been drinking lots of water, and resting. They are still happening pretty intense at times. I called the on call doctor, and she said to just drink, and relax. This is my second child, and my first was born at 35 weeks so I'm a little on edge as it is.
