    Anyone getting anything similar?

    One of my biggest worries with this pregnancy has been pre term labor, partly because every so often i keep getting really weird symptoms - a heavy feeling down below, period like type cramps (but consistent for a long time, not like contractions and no tightening which i thought could be just the baby growing or stretching?) and dull backache (i have problems with my back anyway but today it just seems to be constant - its in the bit where they do the epidural). I've not had anything like this with the others but today seem to have all three together and am getting a little worried now. The period pains i've had on and off for weeks (since about 14 weeks and have had it quite reguarly all the way through - keeping thinking i'm going to loose babe then they go away). I've also had a bit of diarrhea (though nothing major) and been feeling sick at times so may i am getting a bug as i feel a bit rough and sorry for myself - anyone had anything similar?

    If u are worried please call your dr

    With ds3 I had ridiculous pressure feeling constantly and always was contracting Braxton hicks but they were very painful

    If your feeling off call the dr cause it could be a sign of something happening but it could also be nothing like just getting sick

    yeah if it gets worse or doesn't go away i will but for the moment babe seems ok and theres no contractions or anything. Period pains aren't new to be with this one though and its more of a dull constant ache than a pain and my back pain goes off if i move position but it doesn't feel anything like it did when i was in labour with the boys so i just wondered really if anyone else has anything similar.

    I am really tired and headachy to.

    With your son did the pressure thing feel like he was going to fall out - thats the only way i can describe it - if i sit down it goes off but it feel really weird - i've told the midwife about the cramps and the weird feeling at my last appointment but she just says if i'm contracting or bleeding i need to do something about it but its not really reassuring

    Yes there would be days I was out shopping with DH and I had to leave cause the pressure was so intense I couldn't ... In the end he was full term drink a bottle of water and lay down and see how u feel and do some kick counting too

    I think it's part of being preg multiple times I think the looser the muscles the more discomfort.... This time I have constant cramps and back pain no pressure yet but I'm sure it's coming lol...mi know my friend had the pressure feeling with her third too... I would just take it easy get off your feet when it's happening and mention it to the dr/midwife next time you see her/him

    I've had a similar "falling out" feeling lol makes me cross my legs!!! I can remember it with DS1 too and he was born at 42 weeks so I'm not concerned at all! I think it's just babe stretching. Their cramping up quick in there now as they build up their fat
    I should also add I've been having back aches as well!

    Our family is now complete - no more babies for us. We didn't get our girl but I wouldn't trade my boys for the world, so in love.
