[lushious09]

So its been literally all day theyve been comming in waves every 10mins... when i walk i end up waddling as it squeezes my uterus and bladder so hard... so i got home and my bump feels hard ALL the time... they havnt stopped and are still pretty regular... anyonelse finding this this far on?

I'm abit further but i get them all day too.... feels like my bump is hard most of the day. They've started coming during the night too and are sometimes regular.

I am a few weeks behind you, and was getting them that often at about 28 weeks and MW said that I should not get them that often, but I don't know if that is just because of when I was getting them. They then subsided when I was less active and I only get them irregularly now. I would ring MW if not sure xx

yea they tend to get worst at night i find them painful if im lying on my side... any movement and it kills... bubs is kicking away and fidgiting they dont hurt there just so tight! and uncomfy

Yeh i always get them worse late evening, i've had them for quite a few weeks now but they are getting worse. I know this sounds weird but i did notice mine would always be worst when i needed the toilet (no.2) i know thats way TMI.

I had this the other day, every 5 mins. I thought ooo this must mean it's soon but no, now they've stopped. It's just your body preparing you for what's to come xx

i have gotten them all day for weeks now. generally they are ever 20 minutes or so, but sometimes they get to be regular at 10 minutes apart and once even got to 5 minutes apart. i was so sure that labour was right around the corner! but alas, here i am now, weeks later, officially overdue... at my appointment on wednesday i told my doctor that they were still coming often and all day, but she didnt seem concerned in the least.

I've been getting them daily since 28 weeks and last night I was getting them like every 10 minutes, I thought LO would be making an apearence early lol! My policy is to not bother ringing triage unless they get really unbearably painful and then I will be in like a shot xx
