It's back...

[Lulabell]

A couple of saturdays ago I had to go to maternity at 1am due to pains and tightening feelings.

Well today, they have come back with avengance. They have been coming and going since about half 9/quarter to 10. Pain seems to have eased a small bit but tightenings still going on. I am currently at work. Just debating whether to go get checked out again or not. Last time I got checked, all was fine. I don't want to have to leave work to get checked and then be told all is ok. Especially as I have my works xmas do tonight. But then I don't want to risk anything with baby. What do i do? xx

You could maybe wait it out for a bit longer and if they don't ease up go and get checked out. Only u know how bad they feel chick, u shouldn't be getting pains but the tightenings could just be BH. xxx

Im the same lulabell, posted about it this morning. Horrible isnt it, im just sat waiting it out to see if it gets any worse, so far its just consistant rather than getting worse. What did they say it was last time? Is it the same or worse? x

 

[Lulabell]

Sounds like you (Dollie) and me are having the same issues today. I've decided to sit it out a bit and see how it goes. Last time they said it was just stretching pains or where baby had possibly turned? Baby is currently very active which isnt helping. I feel sick, warm, uncomfortable and my bump feels soooo tight. xx

 

[Dollie]

My bump keeps feeling solid to touch but cant feel it tightening if that makes sense? lol. Had two definate tightenings all day where i had to curl up and felt like i needed the loo really bad but just for a few seconds, apart frm that i just feel like AF is on its way!
I hope things ease off for you and you can go enjoy your xmas party xx

 

[Lulabell]

My bump keeps getting tight then fine then tight again. Pains keep coming and going. Very similar to AF arriving. I'd say i keep getting tight feelings and pain every 15-20 mins or so.xx

Sounds like BH. Mine have been like this for a wee while - and active baby can make them worse - so if your little ones turning that might be causing it.

My MW said to get checked they go on for a really long time - so Lulu - maybe its worth a phone call,

or if they become regular, increasing in pain, or getting more frequent - like proper contractions.

I phoned and they want me to come in. They said 9 times out of 10 its probably nothing. I don't want to go down if its nothing. I'm currently at work and weather is crap so I'd have to go home, get my notes then go to hosp.xx

 

[Dollie]

At least it would put your mind at rest x

Better to be safe than sorry!

 

[Lulabell]

I'm sitting it out. Pains seem to be easing a little.xx

Aww chick I know how you're feeling. I've been having pains and tightenings since weekend, and over the last few days theyve been getting worse. I got checked at my scan on Monday and consultant did an internal and my cervix is long and closed but it's soft and baby's head is well engaged, but it's been like that since 32 weeks. Walking for me is agony so I don't know what the hell is going on. Baby is moving grand and he currently has the hiccups so know he's ok haha xxx

Hope you're ok.xx
