I’m 35 weeks today and I keep getting period like pains. The pain came in the night and keeps coming back during the day today along with back ache. The pain lasts longer than a minute tho so don’t know if it’s braxton hicks. Has anyone had this? Xx
I rang the midwife and told her what I’d been feeling and how long, she said it could be the start of labour but didn’t know for certain. She told me to take some paracetamol, have some food and drink and see if the pain goes. I’ve gotta ring back in a few hours to see if the pain is still there. Thanks for your advice girls, hopefully the pain will go! Xxx
@emz.earle, I totally understand I would of been the exact same if it felt different to the usual aches etc with pains on/off for a day. It’s better to just get in touch & ask. That way ya won’t be sitting worrying hun. Hope everything’s alright hun let us know how ya get on xx
@x-t-x, @kayteamay, thanks girls, I’ll give the midwife a ring to put my mind at ease. I haven’t felt like this before so that’s why I’m not sure if I should be worried or not! Xx
@ezchaz, I had the belly ache before I went to sleep and it was still there when I woke up. It didn’t wake me up. The ache went on my way to work but came back when I got to work. It’s a bit achey now, i feel like I’m about to come on my period. x
Personally if it was me I’d get in contact with the midwife, just to let her know what’s going on etc that way if she feels like you need to go in to be checked she can send you in. Least ya mind will be put at ease by talking to her.
My Brixton hicks never hurt but I know others who said that when they had them it did hurt, so it could be that xx
Sounds like it could be braxton hicks. They can be so uncomfortable. Also baby is getting really heavy so it will be getting more tiring! If the pains get unbearable and patterned, give tour maternity unit a call x

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights
I find it pretty hilarious how people who have shown their true colors on social media snake away, delete the posts that outed them and come back on social media like nothing happened. Why do that, you outed yourself, so stay out. We still see you boo boo...
Moms,
Last year on this day, @mother.of.angels or Amanda Conrad's five year old Hannah Nicole very sadly passed away. Today let's celebrate the life of a beautiful girl who lives on in the hearts of her family and friends, and among the whole Preggie community. Please take a look at her memorial page on our website: ссылка
Last year, everyone left this emoji 🎀 on their posts. Our deepest wishes go out to Amanda and her family and we wish them peace.

@ezchaz, hiya chic, the paracetamols did the job and the pain went. I rang back up and they think it’s braxton hicks. If the pain was still there after taking paracetamol then it would have been the start of labour! I’m still buying things for baby so I best get more organised!
Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it :) xxx
