Anyone else suffering from really bad period type cramps since 4:30am this morning, baby moving fine. I will phoning maternity triage, just don’t want to have to go there if I don’t need to as I don’t have a car at the moment and it’s an hour bus journey then 20 minutes walk to the hospital 🫠

They wouldn’t have you in unless pain is regular and close together. Had same period pain and they said they don’t need to see me unless I bleed, waters break or pain in closer together and it has a pattern xx
thanks! Had it before but with really bad pressure down below and they told me to go in x

Yes bad cramping here yesterday I had to stop in my tracks but it didn’t feel like contractions but just period cramping 😫

36 +6 and having this since this morning. Just feels constantly crampy, like a dull ache- I have no idea if it’s something or nothing 🤷🏻♀️

I’ve been having this since 32 weeks. I went into triage they did a cervical exam and nothing so sent me home. I was told it’s just your body getting ready, uterus stretching, baby moving down etc. hurts like hell though and kinda scary it’s not far off early contraction level pain 😅

I’ve been having them a lot! I am 35 + 3. I think some people just get much stronger braxton hicks than others?
So I saw my midwife today, I’m exactly 37 weeks, been struggling with severe period cramps that come and go every 20 minutes all day and she’s said it sounds like labours coming
