So I am having these weird stomach pains. This is my second child so I know what a contraction feels like but they are not very long and there's not a whole lot of time between them (3-5 minutes) I feel like I HAVE to poop and managed to once but the feeling won't go away has anyone else had this problem? I'm 37w3d

I see my Dr Thursday I wonder if I'd be OK to.wait if my contractions don't get close together or my water doesn't break or anything?

I am also 37 weeks and experiencing the same. I saw my doctor on it, the cervical exam caused bleeding, but she said I was effacing and starting to dilate. She thought early labor and cramps were perfectly normal for early labor/false labor. She said it could be a matter or days or weeks... Not too helpful, but ia very normal. But if it continues and or gets worse, call your doctor. She said this ia how some woman's labor begins or how their contractions feel.

I'm 36+4 and experiencing very similar things, this is my third and I've never had this before I have absolutely nonidea :/ I keep getting these pains that (TMI sorry) sorta shoot through my rectum and its a lot of pressure like I need to have a BM but I don't even have anything not even gas :( and on top of that it feels like from about my belly button down and all the way through my cervix is ripping :((

Oh and they do not go up past my belly button and my stomach doesn't get real hard
