Cramping at 34 weeks

This morning when i woke up i had quite a sharp cramp that lasted less than a minute. I had an extra scan today due to baby measuring a bit small on my previous referral. I am now having some slight noticeable cramping could this be braxton hicks?

Constipation

Anyone struggling with constipation? I constantly feel like I need to go but then nothing comes. It’s leaving me uncomfortable and making me feel ill. What can I do or take?

Bum bleeding in pregnancy!

Sorry for the tmi just want to make sure I’m not the only person experiencing this. When having a bm today I noticed blood in my poop. I hadn’t been to the toilet in 2 days so for me would say I was constipated. Midwife said I need to eat more fibre etc. But is this normal? seeing blood has freaked me out. Tia

Do you sleep with your eternity ring on?

When I go to bed, I take my engagement ring off but keep wedding ring on. I now have an eternity ring and wondered if you can sleep with it? What do others do?

Pelvic pain

Not really sure how to say/ask this other than saying it feels like I’ve been kicked in the fanny 😂 is anyone else having a pain/ache on their bits and lower abdomen at all? I’m nearly 30 weeks and it’s the only thing that’s just started that’s making me really uncomfortable 😅

Swollen pelvis

Good evening everyone 🤍🫶🏼 hope you’re all ok!! I’ve had to come off work a little earlier than I wanted as I’m struggling to move around. I’m usually very active so finding it tricky 😭 but in the last few days I’ve noticed that I’m swollen just under the bump, like at the front… I don’t know how to explain it haha…

Bigger bump than imagined

I’m in week 14, and I honestly didn’t think I’d have quite as big a bump as I do but it doesn’t look like a cute pregnant belly just yet, I just feel and look extremely bloated. I have only gained 1pound. Anyone else feeling like this?

Feeling unwell in early labour?

Did anyone just feel like they’re ill in early labour? Cold and shivery, body aches and sensitivity, nausea and just feeling really off? I know I’m in early labour as I’m 3cm and had a sweep. Lots of pressure and back ache since.
