I was having the same issue it felt like I was going to start my period at any moment and the pains were in my lower abdomen area and went to my back and I had more bowel movements then normal, I had a scheduled doc apt this week and told her she said to make sure and drink plenty of water. I did over the next 3 days and pains started to slowly go away.
I was having contractions because I was dehydrated. Make sure you have plenty of water.If its still happening go in.
same with me i went to the doctor when i arrived she said it could have been an infection it was nothing she just told me drink water and lie down
Some of them are painful, my whole bottom is in pain, it's really sore. I know I'm not dehydrated I've been drinking plenty of water and Powerade since yesterday.
I'm gonna be 38 weeks tomorrow, I'm not a ftm but for the life of me I can't remember what the real thing feels like!
