menstrual-like cramping?

[acline93]

Is menstrual like cramping in the second trimester normal? It's only my back!

Lmao so true... Movies n tv seem so easy... Have u ever watched one born every minute on uk channel... Thts some real s?!" lol scared the hell out of me i m not sure hw i m gna go thru labour.... Lol

[pmaried]

I had a UTI before & the pain sort of felt like what you were describing.. And backache is definately a symptom of UTI so maybe once that's cleared up it'll go away hopefully..

[acline93]

I know. We should all seriously make a book "What you wish you would have known before you got pregnant"

[maybaby19]

I sooo agree :/ it scares me! No one prepared me for this craziness lol

[acline93]

Haha I'll be 18 weeks on Thursday, I just want it to go away. Pregnancy isn't anything like how they make it seem on television.

[beauty12]

I had tht through out my pregnancy... Between 15-19 wks it ws so worst i thought i ws having a miscarriage but it turned out everything is ok... I m 25wks somedays i get it somedays i dnt but it doesnt leave me alone :-(

[maybaby19]

K keep us informed and feel better :)

[acline93]

I'm taking meds now for a UTI :(

[acline93]

Haha it's okay, I'm really against taking meds while pregnant, but I'm going to take 2 tylenol, take a hot shower, and lay on the heating pad and see if it eases up.

Lol@a never ending car ride...lol
Acline... U really cud have a uti... Especially if it just started..or had it for a few days... With or without any accompanying symptoms

[maybaby19]

Low* and numerous spaces...I hate my phone!

[maybaby19]

Yea :/ it *****! I noticed a swollen coochi last night too...all sensitive n ishhh. It was a sad day lol but yea ive heard its because all the extra blood flow to the area and what not...is this what men feel like? Poor guys haha. I sit down all day at work though, literally 10 hours a day of nothing but sitting and playing on my phone so I basically have been on a car ride! Try aheating pad or heating blanket on loe....even a hot shower/bath. Let me knowif you find anything that helps!

[acline93]

But my back does feel like I've been riding in a car nonstop

[acline93]

Nope, nothing else really hurts. Just my back, and tmi, but my vajayjay is swollen and sensitive but I called the doc and apparently it's normal lol

[maybaby19]

Awkward question but do your butt muscles hurt? Lol mine and my back and legs feel like I havebeen on a 13 hr car ride with no stops...just tired and sore and just yucky :/ I lose one symptom and pick up 2 more!

[acline93]

Thanks yall. And mamamower if it gets worse I'll go in!

[mamamower]

If it's too painful I would go to the doctor. I started having this last week and went in and ended up being preterm labor. They gave me medicine to stop contractions and put me on bed rest. I'm 21+2. Be careful and trust your instincts (:

[badbonnie]

look up round ligament pains!!!!! it sounds like that

[acline93]

It's horrible! I was like "hell yeah, no more period pains", but here I am hurting like I'm actually on it again!

[miley24]

i get terrible back pain!! i use a heating pad everynight lol

[maybaby19]

I have it! Goes down my leg like PMS too :/ feel better!

[acline93]

I suppose so, it's just uncomfortable. It's not really pain, just feels like dull period cramps.

[sml143]

Yes, I had the worst back pain in the second trimester with my son..I lived on the heating pad lol

I had something similar along with pressure and was told it was braxton hicks Could be the same for you even if in your back?
