A member asked:

35 weeks 5 days pregnant and having cramping pains in back and abdomen, loose bowels, nausea, and tons of pressure, also feels like scraping cervix. 3 cm, engaged, and 80%. is labor soon?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Labor?: Hi MoragnB, yes, sounds like head is engaged and you are getting increasing Braxton Hicks contractions. Go in if water breaks or contractions get longer, stronger and more frequent Happy Day ! thanks
