Worried
Tonight I had to call the after hours on call doc.. I was getting horrible cramps like we had as children as growing pains in our legs.. and so much pressure in my lower back I of course was worried.. She said everything sounded like normal stretching and growing for around 20 weeks and to just take it easy.. I work a full time job everyday and basically stand on my feet all day long.. She told me if I am still worried or the pain gets worse to come into the ER.. Right now I am just gonna take a bath and hope my body can relax for this lil girl... Its hard cuz i wanna talk to my Husband about stuff but I also don't wanna worry him, so unless its something serious that doesn't go away I usually don't worry him with it... Has ne one else experienced this type of cramping or pinching feeling in their cervix? it did go away after some kegles

Yes I remember pains from the stretching and I do think right around the same time as you are. That would be so hard not to have your husband there to share every detail and concern with. Thanks for your sacrifice as a military wife!
Thanks hun that helps me relax a little to know its normal to feel that... and its been tough but he will be home soon, and thank you
Ouch, I\'m sorry for the pain, but at least you can feel reassured its normal. I hope it gets better soon.
Oh, I get horrible leg cramps almost every night. They started at about 18 weeks. They are super painful and doesn\'t seem like anything i do makes them any better. I am now 21 weeks and also still experience cramping, so I\'m pretty sure what we are having is normal. I worry too. Sometimes if I drink more water, it helps the cramps, but nothing helps the leg cramps at night!
Thanks ladies.. yes the doc told me to take a warm bath and drink lots of water if it doesn\'t go away to get it checked out but so far it all helped she just moves a lot and I\'m very petite so i feel everything
Hope you\'re feeling better!
Thanks hun I am def trying not to do to much... but its the weekend we shall see when i return back to work tomorrow
hope you are feeling better
