The pains are on and off again. Sometimes its extremely uncomfortable, other times I feel fine. Could this be early labor signs or is it maybe just from the baby repositioning herself and putting pressure on my spine?

When I say on and off again, I mean the pain will last hours at a time and then go away for a day or so. So I'm not sure if thats braxton hicks or not.

It can be both, I had the same thing and was up all night, when the cramping started I was actually in labor and didn't know it till my water broke. Keep time between the contractions, if they are getting closer than you're probably in labor.

Sounds like Braxton Hicks to me, but I've heard a lot of people that this was the first sign of labor. If it keeps up, call the doctor. I never went into labor, I had a C-section, but my back hurt BAD all the time, and I had B-H daily for the last 3 months. Good luck!

This could just be Braxton Hicks that tend to become more pronounced before delivery. You need to time these, and if they are consistant or happen more than 5 times in an hour, you need to go to the hospital b/c this could be labor. And, false labor is also a possibility; they can treat this in the hospital. Also, remember your back is under more strain now that you are toward the end.

i started the same thing at 34 weeks, it would be REALLY bad and then go away for a couple of day, now im 37 weeks and it just stays REALLY bad, it hasnt gone away in over week. i talked to my doc about it last week and she said it was a mix of early labor, the baby dropping and the extra weight from the pregnancy, being pushed on my hips and everything down there, she said because my body isnt used to this weight that i am more sore then normal specally with the baby dropping down. she told me that i could go into labor ANY day now (but i am also dialeting and everything, im not sure if you are or not) i would just talk it over with your doc. good luck

It sounds like it is early labor. You need to contact your doctor and go for a checkup to be sure. At 35 weeks you don't need to wait. If it is early labor it can be stopped and the doctor can give you a shot to help mature your unborn childs lungs. That is the main concern... Is your childs lungs are not completely developed yet. You should seek medical attention. You can never be too cautious during pregnancy.

Sudden discomfort like that's no longer a well factor. At the very least cross in for your exertions and supply ward and feature them investigate you out. You would be in exertions! Even if you happen to don't seem to be in exertions a minimum of they may be able to confirm that and the danger of any illness can also be dominated out. They too can deliver you whatever to aid with the discomfort and mean you can get a few sleep. Pain such as you defined isn't average in being pregnant.

It's probably Braxton Hicks contractions. Talk to your doctor, you should be seeing him/her weekly by now.
