Hey all - hope your all good.

Im not quite sure whats happening to me today...
...I am 32 weeks pregnant and since yesterday morning I have been having really strange tightening all over my tummy and I feel very sick.

All last night I was unable to get comortable due to back ache and Ive had it all morning too.

Okay so here comes the debatable details...I have just been to the loo and I had something that looked scarily like the muscus plug?

I should say i am not in pain - just have these uncomftable tightening in my tummy about every hourish and feel very sick.

Any ideas???

Thanks peeps x

hiya. i didnt experience that sorry

did you find out what was happening?

i waas gonna say maybe the baby was getting ready to come out!! the head engaging, but you are only 32 weeks??????


but are you ok now???
I never experienced that at 32 weeks, it sounds very much like the start of labour though. Have you phoned your midwife yet?
dont worry this tightening you decribe are just practice contractions called Braxton Hicks. all very normal , just to put your mind at rest ring your local maternity unit they will be onley to pleased to have a chat and to reasure you.
good luck
Braxtons Hicks it is.

I remember them well lol

relax

it could be braxton hicks and you can get nausea and sickness anytime in pregnancy also you can have more discharge too. i am now 38 weeks and get BH all the time, i sometimes feel sick after i eat and i have more discharge than i did earlier on. But if you are worried then call your midwife or delivery suite, they will probably ask you to go in and be checked just to be sure, i am sure it will be fine.
with BH its best to sit down and try to relax and breathe deeply, it makes it more comfortable.
