Was I having contractions?!
Hi everyone, so last week Thursday light around 4 pm I started feeling period like cramps not only in my lower abdomen but all over my tummy, Bach ache and cramps on my legs along with pelvic pressure to the point it felt like it was burning 🤔! It lasted for 4-5 minutes…..exactly 30 minutes later it started. NB: I’m 34 weeks!

Thank you so much thats really relieving! đź’•
You can always ask about it by calling triage/your OB/midwife office if you’re worried! Normally they’ll ask you a series of questions to see if it makes sense to go in and get checked out. I used to call triage often in my last pregnancy haha. Prevented me from lots of worry and also prevented me from actually going into triage as much in person.
@Valerie I did spoke to my OB and she has me booked in for tomorrow for an appointment so I’ll see what happens there

Often times right around the 34/35 week mark, moms can start to slowly dilate a couple of centimeters leading up to full term. It likely was your cervix very slowly softening preparing for eventual labor. Likely not any sort of active labor or rush though. 🤍
