Lots of low pain and pressure..

[hawalkden]

I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant and over the weekend when I've been walking or move after sitting down for a while. I feel like I need the toilet with bellyache. A few times thats helped and was trapped wind but all yesturday and this morning they feel like mild period pains.
All my lower belly is tight a little. Peanut is still laying sideways and booting my left side at night and in the morings!

Just wondering what it could be? Could it be my skin stretching and peanut growing? & not to worry about it?

I feel like a right drama queen and dreading when the full blown contractions start in about 10 weeks time!! :\..

I've had periody type cramps on and off for the past month. Doctor said that as long as I wasn't losing any blood or fluid and they weren't peaking like contractions, then it's normal. They've become worse now baby's head is wedged in my pelvis - you wait for that!!

I'm exactly the same, I've had constant pain in the bottom of my bump for about 24 hours now, I found sitting on a birthing ball last night helped a little. I'm guessing its nothing to worry about, I can feel LO moving, its either stretching pain or MAYBE but I know its a bit soon, baby engaging?x
