Q: Should I Be Concerned?

Hey everybody! I'm 35 weeks now and i've been having these cramping pains and pains just shooting straight down. My mom says that they're probably just braxton-hicks contractions, but people say that your stomach is supposed to get hard during contractions and mine doesnt. Does anyone have any ideas of what this could be? I would really appreciate it if anyone can help. Thank you! Smile

Hi...Thanks jennifer! I took a walk and the pains sort of stopped. However then I just got 2 horrible pains on both sides of my belly. I guess I just gotta wait for the doctor to try and figure out whats wrong. Thanks though! Smile
