Pains! FTM
I'm 17 weeks and having some pains. I've had them for a little while now they aren't terrible but still makes me kinda nervous. I'm not bleeding just having pAins in back and lower stomach area. My mother says it's just everything growing and stretching. It just worries me. Me and my fiance are really excited about the baby and I don't wanna lose him or her.
*contractions don't necessarily mean anything is wrong. Braxton hicks contractions are totally normal from sixteen - twenty weeks along.
It could also be mild contractions. Are the pains more achey/throbbing like cramps or more sharp like getting kicked/punched?
