A member asked:

I am 31 weeks and my cervix is still long but my stomach keeps cramping and my back hurts what could the problem be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

31 week cramping: Your baby is getting bigger and your uterus is toning up for the delivery. The uterus is basically a big musculr sac that hold the baby and those muscle will have to contract to delivery the baby. During the 3rd trimester these muscles are growing, toning up, and somewhat irritable--i.e., can be stimulated to contract by baby's movements, things you eat, fast or vigorous motion. Probably normal.
