End of May 2013 babies CONTINUED..

Has anyone got period pains? I'm having period pain and back pain since yesterday. Is that normal?

Hey Pebbie...I just wanted to say I had some period cramps couple weeks ago for couple of days and then they just stopped...I did not call the dr because they have went away...however during my OB appointment on Wednesday I have asked doc about it and she said that if I get them to lay down and rest and if they do not go away to let them know because they needed to know things like that so with all that said even if they go away I would let your mw know since you had yours for a while and just for some reassurance and so that she would be aware of it...
 
Thanks!
I'm still having them and am being stubborn or probably just don't want to go and bother people at triage when it's nothing.
I called them this afternoon and I had to take a hot bath and paracetamol and let them know if it was still there. I had the bath but it still hurts a bit.
I'm lying down relaxing on the sofa now and will see what things are like in the morning. I'm seeing my consultant on Tuesday so will defo let her know about it. I just hope it's gone tomorrow :)

If it is not gone by tomorrow I would call again. It is probably nothing but it is always better to get checked out. Of course my hospital calls you in for every little things so I would say that.
 
I know. I'll have to go in but I'm always scared that by the time I get there it's gone :(
I know, silly thought but I'll defo go in tomorrow if its still there.
 
I know what you mean. It doesn't help that some hospitals make you feel bad for getting things checked out. I was sent in by a midwife at least twice a week with DS1 throughout the whole third trimester and got sick of it but it has made me urge everyone to get every little thing checked out.
 
Its still a bit sore, but less so think its going away :) I woke up loads last night though with a throat feeling like I'd been in a desert for 2 weeks so I had to get up and drink loads of water. And all day I've been feeling like that, even got cracked lips, so I'm filling up on the water supply. I'm seeing the consultant Tuesday so I'll check with her about the period pains as it also felt as if baby was going to fall out.
 
I actually had a few hours of period like pains and pressure so it felt like he was going to fall out, I even had some bad BH's with it (and both in this and the last pregnancy I only ever thought BH's were mild). It lasted about 3 hours and it was when he went head down for a bit, I think he was pressing on something that made it happen.

I would mention it to your consultant though. It is lucky you have an appointment soon I guess.
 
I think baby is head down as well as I got a big fat kick in the ribs before! Would it be too early for baby to engage?
 
I think it should be too early for that. I think for me it was maybe because I have never felt the head down position before and half of me thinks my body just doesn't like it. Something about it presses on my back really badly, it was the second time I had that feeling but the first time it happened I couldn't feel his head on the outside to know where he was.
 
How was the scan CLH?

Babyface when's your scan again?

Pebbie, I think baby could be engaged at this stage but they tend to go in and out anyway.
CLH, excited to see baby's pics!!! Hope you had a great time.
Babyface great bump pics and look forward to hearing back about your scan good luck hope you get the news you are hoping for!
How is everyone today? Can't believe we are 28 weeks this week! Only 12 to go.
Has everyone got there 28 week midwife appointments booked in for sometime this week?
I have mine on Wednesday and my glucose test on Thursday x
 
Guys! How are you all?
Sorry I've not been around for a while, had broadband issues at work.
Third Tri, yay!!!

Hope you and all the bumps are doing well? x
 
Welcome back Ducky!

Char, I read that babies can engage now and my bump has definitely dropped lower and I can breathe again, yay!!!

I'm having my whooping cough jab tomorrow morning and then seeing the consultant in the afternoon. I believe they're taking blood again at 28 week check. Booooo
 
thanks hun :)
My scan is today at 2!! depending on how much info the technician will give me I might not know about my placenta until my OB appt tomorrow. but hopefully I'll have some pics :)
keep your fingers crossed for me ladies.

welcome back ducky, I'm doing well how are you??
 
Oh good luck babyface! Hope your placenta has moved :)
 
Good luck at the scan babyface.

DS2 has his head stuck far out to the right of my bump today and my muscles feel achy where his head is pressing against them. I need to book my midwife appointment for next week still and she will book the whooping cough jab while I am there, although unlikely for the same day.
