New type of pain
Good morning lovely pregnant ladies
I will try and explain this question as well as I can but it is still early and I have my pregnancy brain on today.
Firstly what does heartburn feel like? as I am having a on and off pain that starts right at the top of my bump and feels like unbelievable cramp and then spreads down and round the underneath of the bump when it happens it kind of makes me need the loo (sorry if tmi) then it dies off only to happen again 5-10 mins later, so far it has only happened three times since I got to work, but it hurts quite a lot and doubles me over at my desk.
I thought it might be heartburn but I have never had it so don't know what to expect if it's nothing like heartburn does anyone have any ideas of what it could be?
Oh and I'm 34+1
Fankooooooo

Thanks for that - I haven't had another one yet and I'm hoping it was just lo doing something to me to make it happen (it really frickin' hurt lol I am such a wuss) I have the mw today so I might mention it to her if it happens again.

If it was contractions I am def not looking forward to labour lol I freaked out for a min there but hopefully all has calmed down now.

Sounds similar to the braxton hicks I was getting at the weekend really regularly! I know 2 wks ago Tommy wasnt engaged at all but when the bitch doctor from hell examined me he was 2/5ths engaged so it might be your lo starting to engage! I am also 34 weeks!
Hope you feel better now!

Also in the past weeks I have had a lot of cm (sorry if tmi) sometimes its really thick like boogers and other times it's very wet - there is no colour to it and it doesn't smell but I thought perhaps it was the begining of my plug. God there are so many things I don't know and because its my first pregnancy I have no idea what to expect or even what a contraction would feel like - now I'm going to go all paranoid ha ha

You will have to mention it if they become regular to your midwife unit just in case little one intends to try to come out early!
Having thought about it it sounds quite similar to a pain I had last week, turned out to be a uti though.

Around all day if you wanna moan mate!!!

She was just pants! I am having a call from the hospital about my growth scan today so it should be either the end of this week or the beginning of next week. I just had a similar pain at the top of my bump to yesterday but I feel like a fool saying anything now, I was anger at her because I know what braxton hicks feel like I have had them for weeks, firstly they don't hurt and secondly they make my tummy go rock hard for a few seconds then go. These pains are doubling over kind of pains and my tummy doesn't go hard so I think I can tell the difference duh!! oh well, she asked me if I was watching what I ate and I kind if smiled and she said "I take that as a no then!" when actually all I was going to say was my diet hadn't changed I just a a bit more chocolate, but that it was a comfort thing rather than a craving, then she told me I could have no chocolate and nothing with sugar in; including fruit!! it sounds stupid but I am now totally miserable at the thought of not being able to eat anything I like it sounds selfish. Whats just as annoying is when I last had to go to the hospital to be monitored (about 6 weeks ago) the doctor told me I had a lot of sugar in my urine but that it was nothing to worry about, I told the mw this yesterday and she went mad saying "of course it's something to worry about!!" well how the bloody hell was I supposed to know that!
ARGHHHH!!! rant over sorry
