cramps?

[rjb]

so the last few days i've been getting pretty painful cramps in my back and lower abdomen,
similar to the ones i used to get before my period started
my belly isn't getting hard or anything,
so it's probably nothing to worry about, right?
edit: a little additional bit here, it may be in my head but i don't think my girl has been moving as much today :/

Drink a lot of water, as it could be that you're dehydrated. Then give your MW a ring. It's probably nothing, but it's better to be safe then sorry.
Are the pains constant or coming and going?

Maybe try drinking a glass of juice or something sugary, then lay down, in front of the tv or with a book, and count 10 of her movements. If she does 10 in an hour then she's probably fine. I'm not sure about the cramping other than your uterus getting ready to have her.

it comes and goes

I've been getting cramping on and off the past couple days as well. Last night it got really bad and I nearly called the hospital.

Drink water, lay on your left side, try applying heat (put rice in a long sock, tie the sock, toss it in the microwave for 45-60 sec, itll work as a heat pad), take hot showers...

I had this a few weeks ago and I was dehydrated.
Which made sense. I was sleeping from 10pm to 11am with nothing to drink during then. So definitely keep hydrated and if gets worse call your OB! Hope you feel better!

thanks everyone! they went away when i started drinking, so i was probably just dehydrated

That's good! It used to happen to me all the time and it would really make me panic.
