Period-like pain in late pregnancy. ??

[mummy of 3 boys]

i get sharp pains like period pain too right down low, im 32wks and 4 days today, ive been getting them for atleast the last 2wks my midwife seems to think its BH but OMG they HURT and i also get diareah (spelling?) this morning ive woken up and vomitted and been getting like a sharp/pressure/pushing pain in my vagina too (my bubs head is down and has been all along, so i wonder if its engaging), i had a midwife appointment earlier and she doesnt seem to worried but my BP is also going up, im scared too as it too early to have bubs

Im going to keep checking this as it will be interesting to see what your told about your pains

Hey

Just got back from the midwife. She told me that it sounds like early labour. I have to keep an eye out for any more pains and if I get any, call her straight away.

And she put me on complete bed rest. Grrr!!! A bit frustrating!!

Oh that is frustrating. I hope the bed rest works though and you keep that baby inside for a good few weeks longer

31 weeks today, so I'd like bub to stay in for another month and of course I'd stay home all day and do minimal to make sure that bub is OK.
I don't really want him/her coming right now!!!

Hope you can keep that bubby cooking for a while yet. Got some good books for your bed rest?

[Charlotte91]

No... got the laptop, but I've been on that all day today and I'm bored by it.

Going to have to borrow some movies and books from family.

Now's the time to get into a TV series of old. Something you have always wanted to watch that is 5 or more series long. May I suggest Buffy The Vampire Slayer? Or 24, something like that.
