I'm 22 wks and have been getting what I think are Braxton hicks but over the past hour I've got like a period pain and like a lower back dull ache. I've had a really stressful/upsetting day. I'm unsure on what to do because I don't want to waste people's time but it's starting to get uncomfortable and I'm a worrier. Has anyone else had this? Just need some reassurance or advice.

Maybe just give the midwife a call just to make sure it's better to be safe hope everything is okay x

@pearce5443 I was always told never to put a hot water bottle on your belly when your pregnant because of the heat I might be wrong I dunno but if your concerned just give the midwife a call 😊 x

@jodiedillon3 I've just spoken to my midwife. She's told me to rest for this evening and monitor it. You're right no hot water bottle. She said a bath might help and if it worsens or I get new symptoms then to call again. Xx

I was told only to put a hot water bottle on your back never your belly, ring triage/midwife they'll give you advice and give you peace of mind 😁 xx

@nataliielouiseexo thanks hun yeah I've spoken to them and they told me not to use a hot water bottle. Been told to have a bath and monitor it. If it gets worse or have new symptoms I have to call again. Midwife thinks it's down to over doing it/stress xx
