Bad cramps up higher in tummy- please help

[Tanya]

Laying down should ease pain that isn't contractions. A bath will also sort anything out that isn't labour. Different women experience different pain. You might just not be the text book labour-pain type of person.



Good luck

It sounds like early labour to me. Put your hand on your tummy and if your tummy goes hard when the pain starts then it is a contraction. Most women feel contraction pains down low to start with however sometimes the pain can be first felt anywhere.

My tummy is very hard as it is, so its hard to tell if its tightening
The pains have eased, so im thinking it may have been a tummy bug.
Ill get to bed early tonight, and see how i feel in the morning. At the moment I got mild back ache...and feel very tight in the tummy

It sounds just like pre labour hun. It can come & go. The back ache is a good sign too.
I'm pretty confident that real labour is not far off for you Could be a few days though.

I agree with BJ. I think your baby will be here soon. Try to get as much rest as you can.
