Im 36 weeks pregnant.. i had the midwife this afternoon and told her about the pains that ive been having heavy period cramping in lower back and tightning across tummy like braxton hicks but painful and gets worse rather than better if i try to walk it off. I havent had a show and my waters havent broken - as far as i know!
its been happening for a few days now and my midwife just said "oh the joys of pregnancy pains!" didnt check anything just the babys heart beat! so i looked online at how to check for dilation on yourself (clean washed hands everytime so no lectures please :P) but either im not doing it right or my fingers arnt long enough to reach my cervix! i havent had any internals thoughout the pregnancy and id rather check myself than wait 7 hours to be seen in hospital :/ hellllp..! :( :(
