Re: cramping after internal
cramping is an early sign of labor!! I started cramping about 1 week before I went into labor!

Re: cramping after internal
Same thing happened to me. First one was fine, second one I was so crampy and it hurt. It could mean something, it could mean nothing. Hopefully it means something good for you!! :)

Re: cramping after internal
I'm incredibly crampy after my internal from yesterday, but it didn't happen with my first 3. So it may be from the internal, or from the fact that I'm 40w5d pregnant, who knows???
But the doc really dug in there this time... I'm being induced on Thurs and he needed to be exact about how many cm I'm dilated, and my cervix is apparently still really high. 
Hope this is a good sign for you!

Re: cramping after internal
Thanks! I dont know if it means anything because my cervix is still really high too. He said it's soft though. It's not dilated at all either...but her head is very low!

ahh!!
I keep feeling like I wont know if I'm having contractions. They will feel different than constant cramping right?
Everyone says, "you'll know," but I'm not sure I will! hahaha

I would start timing the cramping...with ds#2 and #3, my contractions were nothing at all, and I was 6-7 cm...I never would have know if I didnt break my water or have bleeding
With ds#1, I kept on feeling like I had to go to the bathroom, like those kind of cramps...I finally realized that they were coming every 3 minutes, and that it was labor! Haha...good luck

I definitely get those cramps that feel like I have to go to the bathroom. I'm not as crampy now. I dont really know how to time it because with the cramping today it was just a constant cramping. I feel like contractions will have a definite start and end, right? hahaah I dont know. I'm still not dilated at all, so I think I have some time..but I did finally pack my hospital bags tonight!
Thanks for the info!
