Hi there I am 33 weeks along and have been experiencing menstrual like cramps and lower back pain? Has anyone had this and is it normal or should I go in to be checked?

Yea I have been having this 30weeks.I agree better be safe and mention it to ur doc. Try to kick ur feet up & fight gravity. Stay hydrated.

I read that for some women braxton hicks could feel like menstrual cramps. I would tell the doctor even if it was something normal.

Get it checked just to rule out any preterm labor stuff... drink a lot of water and see if it still persists. I had this happen last week and I was having contractions and I didnt even know. I too am 33 wks.
