 Topic: Eeeeekk Cramps....
Posted: 26 May 2008 at 9:49pm |

Since about 7.30 ive been having cramps and lower back pain, they arnt what id call very regular but they were coming roughly every 10 mins and lasting for about 20-30 seconds, then leaving a dull ache.
I had a bath and didnt have any in there, but now that Im out the crampy feeling is still there and the lower back ache.
I also feel asthough i want to have a BM....but nothing is there.
The cramps feel like a strong period pain, kind of like my m/c cramps I guess.
Im not sure yet if its early labour or BH contractions, but this is the first time Ive felt SO crampy and suff...

Ooohhhh, could be, could be!! Mine started like that and stayed really irregular right up until I was induced. It starts getting exciting in these last weeks eh?

Mine too, then I started getting really really hot and I couldn't touch food. Got any of those signs too?
Oh, I'm so excited. Hope that if it is the real thing it's quick and painless for you.

Umm not feeling hot...well Im warm but I just had a bath...
Im feeling slightly nervous lol
Earlier on today i started not feeling very well, felt icky and grumpy and started cleaning stuff lol.
Then after shortland street the cramps started and they havent stopped.
Now they are like a constant cramp that peaks every now and then and feels like a strong period pain.

do the cramps have a definate peak to each one?
perhaps you should take note of when and how long they are so it's easier to keep track
i'm sooooo excited for you!  it sounds promising....but as we all know, these things can quite often lead to nothing 
maybe you should give your mw a call and give her a heads up

Yeah they have a definite peak to them, Ive had wee cramps before but they never felt like this.
I have started timing them and they are ranging from 30-40 seconds and coming like every 10mins or so....
My midwife said to call her when they are a few kins apart etc I think i'll call her when im sure its labour as there isnt anything she can do right now anyways, we discussed today what Im to do when Im in labour.

Ummm not really getting anymore intense at the moment...just staying the same, even seem to have slowed down...
For the past few weeks every night Ive had wicked cervix pain, but tonight I have had basicly none, and caden isnt AS wiggly as he usually is, so Im not sure if that means anything.
Gah its so confusing lol
Im having a slight cramp now....its not intense but its there and I can feel it in my back aswell.

Thinking of you Sheena, definitely sounds like it could be the start of something. Go to bed and try and get some sleep! Just in case.
I'll be checking in the morning to see if there's any news... ohhh do you have a text buddy????
