ktfantas`s poll Show results | Hide results


Pregnancy-poll poll I am 33 weeks pregnant and having very uncomfortable cramp type pains in my lower pelvic area as well as just inside the top of my hip bone area (it is not a tummy ache). I am so exhausted which is for no reason at all. I have had the pain for two hours. It feels constant but more severe at times. Do you think this sounds like braxton hicks?

Yes it sounds like braxton hicks
No it doesn't sound like braxton hicks
It could be anything

BH`s kinda feel like the baby is pushing its back out. You`ll feel on one side of your tummy gets extremely hard, and it looks like the baby is pushing it`s butt out. At first I thought it was a baby in a weird position, to later find out it was BH`s.

Typically with contractions (braxton hicks or the real deal) the pain will begin in your lower back and radiate around to the front of you abdomen. You should also be able to place your hand onto you uterus and feel it harden with contractions.

I don`t think it`s Braxton Hicks. You`ll feel your whole uterus get really hard, and sometimes they hurt where you`ve described (but not always). If it`s just pain in your low pelvic area and hips, then it sounds like round ligament pain and that your baby is growing. I have it a lot with this pregnancy, but it`s normal. The pain can last for hours, especially if I`ve been on my feet a lot. I would just discuss it with your doctor at your next visit. Lots a fatigue is normal with pregnancy, but could be low iron levels causing you to be anemic. Just ask your doctor at your visit. Good luck and try to rest as often as possible.

Oh, and the pain was in the exact same place as you describe.

I had very severe ligament pains about 34 weeks that took me to the doctor. It was so bad it took my breath away, almost in tears. I thought it was labour...turns out it was just ligament pain. Your OB can confirm it if you`re worried.

That sounds very much like my labor pains. but i also had them all over my tummy but what you are havin right now sounds like my braxton hicks
