contractions ? help

Im a ftm, and my stomach just started hurting really bad about 10 mins ago. It will be real bad then ease up, and i tried to go to the bathroom, and i pooped (tmi sorry) but it didnt make it feel any better. Its like bringing tears to my eyes. Do you just feel contractions where you would period.cramps or is it your whole.belly? Im 31 weeks and 5 days.

Baaaahhhh I just posted the same thing and got one response... I'm 30 weeks... Ugh, having. The. Exact. Same. Symptoms... Tmi mine started after going #2. Feet up drinking water, being miserable, hoping they stop. Luckily survival rate is very high at this point but I'd like him to stay put and cook a while longer!!

My husband keeps telling me how do you know and im like its just a different kind of pain I've never felt before. I agree with you on that. Im pretty sure I was having contractions but they did stop. My due date is.February 24th and everyone thinks im gonna go early. My belly has dropped a lot already. I'm just scared my baby boy is gonna come too early and before my baby shower. Does the baby move while your contracting? This is just all so new to me and I'm starting to get very uncomfortable and big already lol

It differs woman to woman but generally it's your whole belly.

I was thinking the same thing. Its starting to ease up more, but it still hurts. Do you just get contractions where you would if you were to cramp during your period or is it your whole belly? I was thinking about taking a hot shower to see if it made me feel any better but im definitely gonna call my dr. I haven't lost my mucus plug or anything yet
