Cramping?

[Dani_Dec2014]

I am 34 weeks and I am having some menstrual like cramps in my lower abdomen and back, is this normal? What is this? Braxton hicks? Contractions?

I did end up going to the doc for this and they said i was having irregular contractions and they would either become regular and closer together and it would be real labor or they would go away. They wouldnt give me the shot because i am so far along

I was told if they are menstural like pains and ur belly is hard or tightened and don't go away when moving or changing positions to go in mine was constant pain so That's why I went in nothing I did helped tried everything

I'm 34 weeks and started having menstural  like cramping with back pain and tons of contractions which I didn't know they were contractions since I've never had them but they were pretty painful I ended up going to l&d and they said it was the right decision I was given shots and fluids to stop contractions and sent home with meds to stop contractions apparently they were 3 min apart while at the hospital but I can't tell what's going on with all of the other pain I have I just knew something was not right and went

I got the same thing since last week, menstrual cramps and back pain, I was scared but it turned out to be braxton hicks... ugh!  I just turbed 35 weeks

When I seen my Dr at last week he said that the Braxton hicks could start if not already. I'll be 34 weeks friday. So possibly. It's happened 2 times to ms so far. To me it feels like I have diarrhea but goes away shortly. Not pleasent.
