Hi Ladies,

I'm assuming that what I am feeling is normal and caused by bubs sitting low, however I did not get any of this with DD so thought I would check with you lovely ladies.

I have had pressure and a bruised feeling since Tuesday afternoon, not painful but achy especially if I get up or roll over. This morning for about an hour I was having irregular braxton hicks, between 5 and 15 mins apart. these were also accompanied by back pain and what felt like menstrual cramping. I sat down for a while and felt better. This afternoon however as soon as I started walking around again it all started again. so for the past two hours I have had the same symptoms. I have now had a shower and sat down and the contractions seem to have eased off. Just the back pain and pressure remain.

Sorry for the long explanation but does this all sound normal?
