cramps in lower abd

[kendricksmommy]

For the past few days I've been getting cramps in my lower abdomen they feel like pooping cramps. Sometimes a contraction follows after sometimes not. Anyone else? 35w3d

the baby is moving and pressing down on cervix plus your pelvic is widening, im 35w today and it gets worse when i lay down and try to stand like a nerve pinching making it difficult to walk at times.

From previous experience this has always been my bodies way of preparing. Sorry to say it is normal and your body's way of preparing for delivery. However if you get concerned you should call your dr. Always always always go with your instinct. That will not deceive you.

Rest doesn't even help it! I mainly get them when I'm in bed! Ugh they hurt too lol

Me too! I'm 36 weeks 4 days. I'm to the point I want to call the doctor but don't want to be told the same thing they always tell me, "rest, it's just part of it" I'm over rest and being at home ALL the time.
