Menstrual Like Pains, 33 weeks

[arlandonbloom]

I am 33 weeks pregnant now and have noticed just this past week that I have been feeling menstrual-like pains down low and where my waist line is where my pants would be I feel like a burning sensation but on the inside and have noticed a dramatic increase of vaginal discharge (no odor). Over all I feel like I normally do right before my period is coming; tired, cramping, achy... Does this mean my body is getting ready?

That's exactly how I am feeling, ewww!

I just started getting menstrual like cramps yesterday at 30 weeks. Is it Braxton Hicks? Because I feel like I'm going to start gushing blood like my period has come raging back after a seven month hiatus!

Yes, I started having the same symptoms at 31 weeks. And I am 33 weeks now. The pain is contractions known as Braxton Hicks contractions. They are normal at our stage. Its our body's saying that our babies are almost here! :) and the discharge is normal. Your thinning out, meaning the mucus plug is thinning so the baby can come.so don't worry! I freaked out the same way. :)
