Yea i actually had this lastnight, LOL i came here to ask if this was normal, and i guess you already asked the question so i guess its normal!!! Im 29 weeks, i called my OB this morning asking about it, and he told me that im at the stage where the baby is starting change positions and move around alot more, and my belly is growing more now then ever, so its just stretching and pulling causing this pain. Lastnight i felt like i couldnt even get up and walk it hurt so bad, and the baby was kicking and doing flips and making it worse LOL, but he said it was nothing to worry about. Its all normal.

More the likely it was a braxton hicks contraction. Nothing to worry about, but if you get it that bad again, call your doctor. You may want to mention it to them, or call and leave a non-urgent message with the nurse. If the baby is kicking, and doesn't act like it's frantic movement, you are fine. Sometimes braxton hicks can make the baby move more, that's pretty normal, but one that lasts that long isn't so normal. Call your doctor and see what they say. It isn't an emergency, you don't need to rush the hospital or be frantic about it. It could be something as common as ligament stretching. But just let you doctor know.

I would go to the hospital or call my doctor to make sure everything is ok. I'm 31 weeks along and have never had pain last that long. My cramps have lasted only a second or so and were due to my tendons and ligaments adjusting to the baby's growth. To be safe, I would go to the doctor's because 30 minutes is a very LONG time!

Welcome to the wonderful world of pregnancy! I had menstrual type cramps from day one with my son, but they didn't last that long. I'm not sure if what you are experiencing are braxton hicks contractions (your belly getting ready to help the baby come out), but if they continue for that duration and intensity it might be a good idea to call your ob and have a quick check-up. Where baby is concerned, it's better to be safe then sorry.

It sounds like you had your fist Braxton Hicks (false labor contraction) It is just they way your body and uterus prepare for the real deal.
You will have them constantly. Usually you can start feeling them around 22 weeks. I am 31 weeks and I have at least 3 a day. But to be on the safe side just call your doctor and tell him. Good luck.

Sounds like Braxton Hicks to me. They feel like menstrual cramps. Make sure to ask your OB about it though.
