period pains, back ache, hip ache and loads of pressure down below

For the last few hours as the title says.... I've had all that?

Baby is also moving LOADS! Is it her moving causing all this? Or something else?

Had some paracetamol and its done nothing. I'm in quiet a bit of pain :/

Xxx

I also had this today! Went to my hospital to find out I'm in slow labour dilated 2-3 cm. maybe it might be worth getting checked to see if your making progress? I tried a hot bath to take some of the pain away. They gave me a sweep at the hospital to help things along. Hope you feel better soon or things have started for you

I'm having all this right now, and Dr basically told me this morning that i'm in slow labor and baby could come today, or in 5 days. I wish things were more certain! Lol!

Did you have any other signs though? Like proper contractions, shows etc..... Xxx

I'm having contractions around 10 mins apart right now, and have been losing small bits of plug and mucus every day for about 4 days now (but not the whole plug and no bloody show or leaking waters)

I think I've lost my show, not quite sure though. I know my baby's head is very very low, they offered to even pop my waters but I wanted to give birth at the birthing center, so I refused. But I had some lower back pain which came around to the front of the bump. I took some paracetamol and it has taken the edge off the pain. Not really sure if I was contracting as I don't know how that feels

just a waiting game now

I have an irritable uterus and I feel like this especially with the period pains but there is no pattern. I have been having them for 3 weeks now. Some things just aggravate the uterus more. For me it's my bowels moving. I also have tons of pressure the last 4 days too. No back pain it's all in my pelvis and really uncomfortable.

Gave the ward a cause..... Basically take paracetamol and keep my eye on it. If the pains become regular call back xxxx

I dont have any advice but Ive been feeling exactly the same for the past couple of days and with a ton of braxton hicks. Its at the point where I can hardly walk as the pains and pressure have gotten so bad

The thought of potentially 4 more weeks of this is scary. Hope you feel better soon
