HELP ME!
posted 22nd Jul
Hey ladies,
I'm having some pains, they are coming about every 5-10 mins..... and aren't getting any worse in intensity, just painful little stabs every once in a while, and wrapping around to my back. I don't feel that my stomach is tightening though.
I'm just coming up on 29 weeks, has anyone experience anything like this?
Just don't know if I should call the Dr. or just RELAX!

Sounds like "fake" contractions. (Dr.'s words not mine, lol) But I would call and describe them to your dr office just to be safe.

Could be what is called Braxton Hicks. These resemble normal contractions, I had them and just felt very uncomfortable but the intensity does not increase. If this is your first baby I suggest you rather go to the Doc and have it checked. Good luck.

the baby is still moving so it makes me think that it's just BH, but this is all new to me!

Make sure you're drinking a lot of water....and if you're getting theses BH when you're laying down..get up and walk around for a little bit...if they go away then they're fake.
