Specializes in Pediatrics

Normal: Unfortunately, small period like pains (Braxton Hicks contractions) and achy feet/back are all typical for late 2nd/3rd trimester of pregnancy. Try resting with your feet up or lying on your side, warm compresses to back, acetominophen and maintain your level of exercise. See a Dr for increasing, steady contractions, any bleeding, swelling of feet accompanied by headache, or dizziness.
