28 weeks & period pains? help :(

Nafretili · Apr 5th, 2012, 13:32 PM

What it says in the title really.
Feels like I've got period pains all around my stomach and the bottom of my back

Anyone had this?
Is it anything to worry about?

I had those yesterday in my tummy (not my back) but figured it was normal??

I don't know she's been moving the usual amount, but since these pains have been here she's not kicked :S I dunno, could they be braxton hicks? I dunno what they feel like!

No, braxton hicks is different (Ive been getting those since 19 weeks so very familiar with them). I just posted on your BH thread. x

I have these pains too. Probably just stretching pains. I have them in my lower pelvic area and back. I think its Noahs head as hes head down now. All normal though Im sure x

It's probably something normal like growing or stretching. Maybe give midwife a call if your concerned? Have u tried encouraging her to move since? Xxx

yeah i had a bath as advised by mw and was giving her a bit of a prod but no major movements, one little twinge far down thats it. She said to call back if pains get worse, theyre not worse but certainly not better! Gonna give it a couple of hours, if theyre still bad im gonna ring back. Just so uncomfortable =[

I had this last week and the mw told me to come in as sounded like either early labour or bh. It was a kidney infection! Doctor said uti's/kidney infections can present like these sorts of pains as everything is so sensitive at the moment. Drink lots and lots of water hun, take a nice warm bath and see how you feel. If concerned call the hospital and get some advice xx
