A member asked:
I am 22 weeks pregnant and for the past few days i have been feeling like i'm about to start my period... what does that mean
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Preterm labor: That feeling is usually caused by cramping or contractions but can also be normal. It needs to be checked. This is especially true if you feel the uterus getting hard and the sensation comes and goes, or if there is any increase in discharge. The only way to know for certain is to be checked. See your doctor right away.
