strong period cramping at 32 weeks

[sweetbee3]

I just started timing these period like cramps , so knowing the time in between?  I'm not sure. But they just started about 5 pm. Lasting about 1-2 mins.   Its not OMG I'm going to die pain, but it's to the point where changing positions isn't helping,  and I kinda just freeze until it's over. A call to the Dr???

Drink loads of water. I was having contraction at 29 week due to being dehydrated and I never new I was dehydrated but that makes tighting pains aswell.  I'm now 32 weeks and when I get tighting pains I drink water and goes away

OK, yeah not having the tighting pains. But again I am high risk. Went to see the Dr today and I'm 1 cm dilated.  & drink a gallon of water a day. Id say that's enough Lol but thank you!

Yes! Sounds like the beginning of contractions. They might need to be stopped or steroids given to help develop baby girl's lungs in case she's planning in making an early entrance!

Ty! By the time my OB. Called me back (1hour later) and by that time cramping stopped.  Was thinking BH??  But they have never caused pain before.  Going to get some rest and just go to my apt tomorrow,  and my nst which I already do twice a week. But thank you for your reply
