intermittent cramping pain - worried!!

[fluffpuffin]

I'm really worried as I've been getting this painful sensation in my stomach most of the day. It feels like a cramping sensation low down. This is the 2nd time I'm experiencing this. First time was on Thursday but only for about half an hour and then it passed. Now today it started early in the morning. I lay down again with a hot water bottle and it eased off a bit, then later it re-appeared and hasn't really stopped. I tried a hot bath but that only helped briefly. LO has still been moving around and I picked up the HB on my doppler, and initially I thought it was only trapped wind. But would that persevere for that long??? Any help welcome as I'm getting worried now. Thanks. xxx

It sounds like braxton hicks contractions - practise contractions. Speak to your mw at your next appt if you're worried

Thanks. It's a lot better this morning, but I still worried, as obviously I didn't expect the pain to continue for most of the day yesterday. I'll speak to the midwife if it starts up again. Baby is still moving around lots, so I'm not panicking too much yet. x
