Pains

[xxbeckyxx]

So I have been getting some great period-type pains now and then which is all good, but they seem to be related to how full my bladder is, is this normal? If I have a full bladder they are really strong but as soon as I pee they go away.
Anyone know why? I know a full bladder means more pressure down there anyway but does that mean they aren't 'real' pains?

Not sure hon - I get exactly the same thing. Every time I get any kind of cramp I think that this must mean something is going on even if its not real labour yet but dont know if thats just optimistic thinking

Yeah I think every time I feel something different I get a bit carried away....can't believe I might be pregnant for another 3 weeks :S

I had this for the first time last night!! I kept getting really excited thinking ooooh maybe this might be the baby engaging (not optimistic enough to think it might be labour) but then I ended up just needing a wee?!? SO strange!!! xxx
