Headbutting my cervix??

Hi all,

The last few days, I have been getting a lot of sharp stabbing pains down low (which I think is like a headbut to my cervix). So much so that I am flinching my whole body as the pain is so sudden and sharp.

I don't know if this is normal or if i should call my OB and ask this question.

Anyone out there have this issue at 35 - 36 wks?

I've had some period type pain, but nothing more than what I would describe as things getting prepared, and on Sat morning i had a high tummy tightening, for an hour or so, but nothing I would say that would indicate that I'm having contractions (and I haven't had a show or waters breaking either)....

Help?!

Hi hun,
I'm 33 weeks and I've been getting these too. I got them with ds as well. I think that's pretty much exactly what it is- bubs headbutting or punching your cervix, hips, or the nerves in your spine.

Tbh, I find it really annoying and painful and I get sick of people asking me if I am in labour evry time I flinch or keel over...

I started getting that when each of my bub's engaged. It started at 34 weeks this time and it HURTS! It's like a really sharp knife stabbing you *shudder*.

So, yep, unfortunately it is normal :)

I'm due the day after you and yep, I too have been getting these pains ontop of feeling like I have a bowling ball between my legs!
Not long to go now hun... I know it is hard but try to enjoy as much as you can. All the best :)

Kosi - me too hon! Fun and games, isn't it!!!

I'm seeing my OB today so will be intersting to see if Tarko is engaged or just playing games with my cervix!
