37+5 having cramps?

I'm having menstrual cramps that come and go for the past hour. My boyfriend and I had sex tonight, the cramps aren't too painful but uncomfortable. Is this normal?

They haven't gotten any stronger as of yet. I know I'm close though but it's just cramps none in my back so far. Thanks ladies :-) I'm so ready to not be pregnant anymore lol

I had the same after sex, all night nd morning, went into l&d , they were contractions but not strong enough to be kept. They said if they got stronger or more frequent, to come back in. They start in your back nd then to the front? Mine were toe curling but bearable, my mom says they get 10x worse :0 ! Just watch them nd if they get worse or you get worried, definitely go in!

Sounds like contractions.  They start off just like you described and get stronger as you progress.  Call your dr and see what they want you to do and if/when u should go in. Good luck.

They don't hurt that bad at the beginning

I haven't had bh or contractions yet but this cramping coming and going and making me feel nervous. I don't know what a contraction feels like but this is coming and going every 10 minutes so I'm thinking contractions but I thought they were supposed to hurt? **I do not have a high pain tolerance at all**

I would time the cramps to see if there is any rythm to them...

Sex causes contractions as well could just be from that ...monitor it and if it gets worse give your doc a call

I'm almost 38 weeks pregnant lol no bleeding or spotting but jeeeez I haven't had cramps for soooo long. I'm wondering if I'm having contractions or getting close to labor

Are u having any spotting with your cramps? Usually cramps with spotting is an indicator of implantation bleeding a sure sign of pregnancy.But if u are just experiencing the cramps alone it could just be pms.Aunt flo may be on the way
