Avatar n tn I'm 34 weeks and having the strongest menstrual type feeling cramps ever. My Lower back is in so much pain. It's almost unbearable. Should I be concerned? Did anybody experience this before labor?

7450032 tn?1396631975 I'm 31 weeks 4 days and I've been having this really bad back pain that feels like menstrual cramps. I also get the same pain in my lower abdomen as well but it's consistent. There is no rhythm to it so I don't know what to make of it. It hurts pretty bad at times then at others not so much and it's lasted about a week now. My baby is moving just fine and I'm not spotting or anything. I'm a ftm so this is all new to me. Anyone have any idea what this could be?
Avatar f tn Is it normal to have slight cramps below your stomach ( almost like menstrual cramps) the first 4 weeks?
Avatar f tn Is it normal for lower back pain and menstral like cramps.
Avatar f tn I had the same problem. Switching sleeping positions or recruiting your partner for a back rub can really help! Watch your posture when sitting up. Also a hot water bottle or heating pad feels great (just like with menstrual cramps). If you don't have one, use an old dish soap bottle and fill with hot water, or take a pouch or old sock and fill with rice, close, knot and heat in the microwave for a couple minutes.
Avatar f tn It may even feel different from one pregnancy to the next. Labor contractions cause discomfort or a dull ache in your back and/or lower abdomen, along with pressure in the pelvis. Some women may also feel pain in their sides and thighs. Some women describe contractions as strong menstrual cramps, while others describe them as strong waves that feel like diarrhea cramps. How Do I Know When Contractions Indicate True Labor?

Avatar f tn When the uterus stretches it feels like menstrual cramps, mine were a but stronger than regular menstrual cramps. If they get unbearable I would call the doctor just to be safe.
Avatar f tn I will be 21 weeks tomorrow and for the past two weeks or so, I've been having menstrual-like cramps. They don't come at any particular time, and like period cramps, it hurts in my lower abdomen and back. Are these Braxton Hicks? Why am I experiencing this?
Avatar f tn I am 35 weeks tomorrow with baby #1. Been having menstrual like cramps in my lower back and lower belly/pelvic area. It started not last night, but the night before. Occasionally it gets painful and sharp pains spread up towards my belly button. When they aren't the sharp pains that go up higher, it's just a dull ache like the period cramps. But the cramps have been pretty constant for the past hour or so. I know I'm not in labor yet, but could this the beginning signs?
Avatar n tn Been having menstrual cramps/ Braxton hicks since 2 I think my baby will be here later on tonight. Or tomorrow morning...I labor for 22hrs +. Every 20 minutes I have menstrual back pain!
Avatar f tn Im having lower back pains they feel like menstrual cramps that won't go away I tried a warm bath Tylenol and to relax and it just won't go away its on my right side of my lower back....
Avatar f tn I have that it feels like Menstrual cramps in my back
Avatar f tn Thank you! It comes on like a strong cramp and I get dizzy or nauseous and then I'm fine like 2 minutes later. And it happened a few times before but happened off and on all day today... I guess if it continues I'll call the doc tomorrow.
10913038 tn?1424227711 After my first miscarriage I pay attention to where the cramps are. When I miscarried I had cramps all around, front to back, much like how it feels when I went into labor with my oldest son. So my rule of thumb for cramps: if it's not in my back and I'm not bleeding it's probably normal. I'm actually cramping right now (17 weeks) I really think it's just stretching. They aren't painful, it hurts just enough to be annoying.
5609181 tn?1375332372 I had back labor with both pregnancies. It was like menstrual cramps that wrapped around my pelvis and came in waves. If you're getting menstrual like cramps that are consistent, it's always a good idea to get checked.
Avatar f tn t so strong at first just strong we enough for me not to sleep at all. I would pace back in fourth and get in the tub. Then once I calculated my contractions to be about 5 minutes apart I contacted my OB since it was already the morning. And she admitted me to labor and delivery. But if you feel something is wrong always go to er or call your on if they are opened.
Avatar f tn Is it normal to have period like cramps during your pregnancy? Im 13 wks. I had those cramps this passed Monday, it woke me out of my sleep. It really made nervous and i checked to make sure i wasn't bleeding and i wasn't.
Avatar f tn I am 18 weeks and have been having menstrual like cramps low in my abdomen on and off, along with discharge daily. (sorry TMI) I've read that these symptoms are normal, but I had low amniotic fluid with my last pregnancy and am just paranoid at this point. Anyone else have these symptoms?
Avatar n tn You might ask your doc to order an MRI of your uterus. If you have scar tissue there, it can really hurt during your period.
Avatar f tn I'm having TERRIBLE back ache it's like severe menstrual cramps almost. Does anyone know how back labor feels? I feel like I'm dying.
