I had Cramping during the night

Tuesday night I felt a little bit of cramping here and there and it went away but last night I woke up around 4:30 and it felt like my whole stomach had a menstrual cramp and it felt like it was getting more intense. My stomach wasn't tightening or anything just the cramps.... They weren't painful really, (I don't have bad cramps either during my periods..) Is this the start of baby coming soon or was this just some sort of Braxton Hicks??

This is how my labor started.

Good luck & keep us posted.

Sounds like my contractions...I wouldnt be surprised if your a little dilated from it.

Re: I had Cramping during the night

I had these last night as well and i am due the same day as you. I also have been having a stomach ache everytime after i eat.

Re: I had Cramping during the night

I was thinking the same thing if I might be opening up soon... I did get my first internal on Monday and she said my cervix was closed but the beginning of the efacement she felt was opening up..

I do feel pressure down there when I get up and walk around, I'm wondering if his head is slowly pushing down..

Vegalady, I don't feel anything bad after I eat... I didn't get to respond on your other post about your ribs hurting, but I don't get that either...

I think one of the better factors of my body is that I have a long torso so I don't have the heartburn (had it maybe 2-4 times very short) and the only thing I feel with my ribs is the occassional kick here and there depending how I'm laying...

I get these sort of cramps, too. I think I posted about them (but I could be wrong ). I think it's my body's way of contracting ... so maybe for you, too!

Re: I had Cramping during the night

I have them too, all night and throughout the day. Feels like the start of a period, right?

I went for an internal on Tues. and I'm 1cm dialated. I'm just figuring that I'm dialating more (I hope so!!! )

I have severe pressure when I stand up, feels like the baby is going to fall right out of me Dr. said this wasn't the head moving or anything b/c she's still a little high, oh well.

I also feel nausea thoughout the day, another sign they say. Do you have that?

Re: I had Cramping during the night

no it seems as my cramping has stopped, It did feel like the beginning of a period. I felt a little this morning but nothing at the moment...

I feel pressure when standing up but its not painful..

Everything else is just normal pregnancy feels I've had..

Phoebee, sounds like you'll go before me..
