Feeling super crampy

EricaK22

Ugh. I hate this part of being pregnant. I'm starting to feel like I'm going to get the WORST period of my life!! My stomach keeps getting super hard, and feels like I'm being squeezed. I think I was feeling some contractions earlier as I was grocery shopping. And I'm feeling lots of pressure in my vagina! I hope I go into labor..I'm so tired of being pregnant lol

You are probably overdoing it in this heat. Make sure you are staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest.

@mijita I hope that's not it. I've been drinking so much water and coconut water to stay hydrated, and been doing the bare minimum for everything else. And I stay inside until the sun starts going down so it's not so hot.

Are the cramps timeable???

Mijita

What you described are BH. I hated them, it's uncomfortable. How you feel relief soon.

@1stwoodsbaby the cramps were a never ending feeling. I got up to go get some ice, and it's gotten a lot better. Now my lower back feels achy. It just starts happening all at once. This I think is the worst part of pregnancy..it's always a guessing game as to when you'll go into full blown labor!

It sure.is like a game. With my first pregnancy I kept telling my husband I wish there was a sign, like our finger nails turned a certain color or something like that so we'd know for sure! It'd make it a lot easier.
