Hi Ladies,

I posted this in preg general as well.

I have been getting crampy feelings in my back and tummy on and off for about the last week and assumed it was BH.
On & Off over the past cpl days I've had these crampy, achy feelings in my vagina, feels like my cervix.
I've also got quite a bit of lower back pain and feel like there is alot of pressure low down in my tummy.
Does anyone know what this is?
Is it normal?

Thanks Ladies

mmm sounds to me like a visit to your gp/ob or hospital for a check on that cervix! Its probably nothing but best to be sure ... any cramps/cx at all ?

Hey bubno.3 yea i've had cramps on and off in my tummy which I thought were braxton Hicks, only the occassional one here n there. My lower back is quite achy, just these weird throbby, achey pains in my cervix that i'm not sure about. Should I call my Ob? I thought maybe it could be a normal part of 3rd tri, and being my first I don't have any experience, unsure what's normal and what's not.

Are they coming with any regularity, and have you noticed an increased amount of discharge at all? Also do they continue when you rest? In the absence of those symptoms I would say it is likely your baby has dropped onto your cervix, and you are getting normal BH's. However if you are concerned it is always worth a check with your OB or midwife just to make sure baby isn't in a hurry to meet you.
