@Allie i get them with my period too. Is the back pain how your labor started? Im dying haha
Well I had to be induced but yes once my contractions started I felt a lot of it in my back. My real active labor pains were all in my lower back. I’m pretty sure my husband bruised my tailbone applying counter pressure haha but it was the only thing that helped since I did unmedicated
@Allie oh my that’d sounds miserable!! I didn’t get any sleep because of the pain—feels a little better to walk around. Gonna see if my doc can see me this morning
@Allie just had three rounds of basically diarrhea back to back and have period cramps—ugh what a fun past 5 hours haha. At what point can I get checked at L&D?
You should always be able to go into L&D to get checked. If you think you’re in labor, go in. I’ve heard back labor is different from what most people feel. But if you’re feeling pain like period cramps, that’s typically contractions. Sounds like it might be baby time!!
I definitely agree with what Emilee said! Hope your baby time is coming soon! The diarrhea is definitely the first step lol
I had back labor pains and knew I would since I always have cramps in my lower back when I’m on my period.
