My doctor told me while I was pregnant if you're having pains to lay down, drink a glass of water and if their still there to go to the hospital.

That's how my labor started with brayden, I woke up at 4 in the morning having contractions that werent even strong enough to know what they were. Usually if they go away then they're nothing to be concerned about.

I think they're braxton hicks hunny, and you're pelvis can be hurting from the babys head dropping down low.

My labor and delivery sheet says to go in for an eval. For serious headaches or migraines. But ya the pelvic thing gets worse sometimes I cant even move my legs to get off the bed and go pee it really sux.

Like dani said pelvic pain is going to be there awhile but if your worried never hurts to go get checked usually with first pregnancy your baby drops earlier around 32 weeks in first time moms. All I did was put heat pad on my pelvic nothing to hot or put ice wrapped in a towel your hormones are also relaxing al the muscles down there and in your back so its like your out of shape and even after you have the lil one the pain can stay a few more weeks. The joys of pregnancy its more of a pain.

hun are you seeing spots with your headache? If you are you need to go to the hospital. If your head hurts so bad that you can't see or your vision is blurred then call your doctor now!!!!! Do you have high blood preasure? Or any swelling? I know at how far along you are you probibly have a lot of swelling, but do you have excessive swelling like if you prop your feet up...Does it go away slightly or does it stay.

You need to call your doc to make sure you aren't getting pre-exlamcia.

I would call your doc.

I hate the fact that girls "try to suck it up" something could seriously be wrong with you, or the baby. And something could happen to you or the baby that could of been prevented because you wanted to "try and suck it up"

i hope you both are okay, but remember if you feel something isn't right then go to the hospital right away, better to be safe than sorry.

I have to agree with one thing better to be safe than sorry like I posted earlier, when ur preggo u seem to worry more but us momma get woman intuition and usually its dead on. I went intot he hospital with cam cause I was bleeding usually unless ur not bleeding hard they tell u to ignore it but I felt something else was wrong and I told the dr this so they ran more test and found a serious complications that resolved itself!!! Basically all im trying to say is trust urself and ur body never play with fate especially when it comes to a bubs!!
