29 weeks...

im a bit worried at the mo, the other night i was having contractions every 12 minutes apart but they stopped after 2 hours. i think they were contractions... it was lower back pain, my whole belly tightened up and a period cramp like feeling in my abdomen that was quite strong. I went to see the ex-midwife who lives next door to me and she said if it happens again i should go into hospital as it could possibly be a sigh of a UTI or pre-term labour. Today ive been having all sorts of wierd pains. my lower back is killing me and i keep getting sharp period like cramps but not with the tightening of my tummy.
with my 1st pregnancy i had nothing like this at all so i am kind of at a loss as to what it is! I dont want to go see the ex-midwife again as she will probably think i am just being paranoid.
oh well... hopefully i will be ok.

I am 24 weeks pregnant with 3rd child and have experienced very similar symptoms to yours, have yours continued and have you found out any info as to what might be causing this? Lisa x

I am 24 weeks and have had a similar experience. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I have never had this before. I to started with tightenings across the center of my belly on Fri night and by 11 o clock decided to take myself into hospital. I have spent all weekend in hospital to be told to go home today and go back if anything happens but they have not explained what they are and today I have lower back pain and a crampy pain in my lower stomach.

I was interested to see if anything has happened with you or if anyone has been able to explain what may be going on. x
