Cramping?
Posted: 05-18-07 21:14pm

ok so i'm cramping a lot tonight ... I know it could be braxton hicks or whatever but I'm just unsure... I feel so icky and just not right?
the cramping is getting pretty bad and then on top of that I have her moving around in there and I swear everytime she moves I feel like I am going to throw up.
Im sure it's normal and I'm not gonna let myself worry but did anyvody else experience period like cramps and heavy nausea at this stage ... everytime I feel the slightest butterfly ... I have to hold back from throwing up!
gah I don't know if I liek this whole pregnancy thing anymore Laughing

I think that they are braxton hicks. Braxton hicks are painless but some confuse the pressure for pain. If you notice any patterns in them or if they get stronger then I would call your ob or go to l&d.

Very
Happy

braxton hicks *can* hurt, even my doc told me that, its the fact that the uterus is contracting around the baby and it getting pushed against your cervix, it can easily hurt

they are most likely bh if they are irregular, if you havent yet try laying down, it can help a lot sometimes

but if you are conserned then deffinantly call your doctor, even if you think its stupid, call them, that is what they are there for, it may help ease your mind

see I'm sure it is braxton hicks but the thing that's bugging me is that it isn't comign and going... it's constant cramps and burning and so on...
I don't really know how to describe it..
I probably should lay down I'm just dreading getting up and out of the computer chair! It's so low to the ground and I don't get up and down that easily anymore... I'm your textbook preggo , grunting and groaning ALL the time!

along with what .alicia said, being dehydrated can cause severe .b.h.

Many women have them, but cannot feel them as they are properly hydrated!!

Get to drinkin ladies!! Wink
