Just another joy of pregnancy or a concern?
Hey guys! I'm currently 19w4d expecting baby number 3. You'd think I've got this all down by now!
For the past few days I've been experiencing loose bowels and pretty severe cramping. Enough that it takes my breath away and I literally freeze up. I figured I was coming down with a stomach bug. This began about 3 nights ago and the cramping was literally keeping me awake, but it would stop in the morning. Now today I've still got the loose bowels and cramping and to top it off I'm getting horrible pains in my lower back. My doctor is closed for the night so I cannot call(I will tomorrow) and I am currently pending insurance from the state as I am very recently unemployed (I've only not had insurance for a week and of course I'm in pain) so I dont want to go to ER if I'm just over reacting. Google has me worried because if you google loose bowels and cramping in pregnancy it says signs of labor. Again, I feel fine otherwise so I am no longer thinking this is the start of a bug, but I could be wrong.
Dr Google is not helping much so I thought maybe Dr LJ could help me out? Any advice? Is this normal? What can I do about these monster cramps?! Thanks in advance!!
