A member asked:

I am 31 weeks 3 days pregnant and currently experiencing some pretty bad back pain and abdominal cramping. should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Call the Ob-Gyn Dr.: A 31-week pregnant woman with a tummy that is cramping up can call her Ob-Gyn doctor and go get examined at the doctor's office or at the hospital's labor and delivery ward. The doctor will be checking for preterm labor, which can lead to a preterm birth (and all the problems that come with premature babies). Preterm labor is serious, so it is important to be examined by an experienced physician.
