Pains

Having sharp cramps on my lower abdomen on the right side on and off for a few hours now every few minutes, my stomach is really tight and I’ve had a sore back all day but never had a sore back my entire pregnancy until today! FTM here, could anyone give me any idea of what could be going on? 🙈 Triage is an hours drive away and I’m home alone tonight as my partners away with work 😭

Could be contractions, it's worth calling triage!

@Charlotte they only seem to be happening for a second or two so I don’t think it’s contractions, I can’t say for sure though as this is a first for me! X

They might be able to give you some reassurance though. If your tummy is tight it's probably Braxton hicks, but better safe than sorry, they'd always rather you called 🥰

I'd try sleep it off or have a warm bath, if they start getting stronger and longer take note and call midwife

@Lauren just had a bath and heading for bed! Hopefully it’s nothing but if it gets any worse I’ll phone them! X

How are you feeling today?

@Zoe feeling okay, no pains today but could barely move when I woke up due to pelvic pains, probably the worst they’ve been so far! Taking it easy today but if any more pains start up today, I’ll phone the midwives x
