Feeling like I'm getting cramps, bad ones like I'm about to get my period. Don't know if this is…

how far along are you

19 weeks @justinjrsmommy

as long as your not having any heavy bleeding. your okay. try drinking some water. stay hydrated.

if they cramps don't go away and get severe. call your OB. or head to Labor and delivery.

I was going to say it could be your uterus trying to get used to baby being in there but since your 19 weeks that sounds like Braxton hicks.

Thanks, I will @momma588

Is it normal to have those around this time? @justinjrsmommy

your welcome 💜 @mommytobe060416

I've been told that the cramp feeling you get is from dehydration and may feel like you're having contractions. just keep drinking water and you shouldn't feel them as much

I had the same problem last wk for 3 days straight, along with tightening, my midwife said I'm probably dehydrated (dehydration causes the cervix to contract) so she said to start drinking a lot of water...I did and I've been fine since

Thanks girls, more water it is :) @amberr_0302 @bianca_rose

Braxton hicks start at 6 weeks except they're so small you can't feel them until mid pregnancy. Some women don't even notice them until later. I didn't start noticing mine until after 20 weeks.
