Just For Laugh – Stomach ache
are these braxton hicks?
hey – i keep getting really achey crampy feelings low down in my abdomen, feels like gas pains – but no gas!
and i keep getting really breathless, like if i’m just sat not doing anything it feels like i’m being suffocated from the inside lol – it feels like my little girl has either moved up and is in my lungs (but i dont feel her move at all).. my whole stomach tightens up loads so i’m guessing they are braxtons
is it normal to get the achey cramps? i get them every hour at about 15 mins past.
oh yeah – i’m 35 weeks, my little girl is engaged but dont know how much as she keeps moving up and back down again, i dont know if i’m dilated or effaced or anything and she has also slowed right down just lately..
Braxton hicks contractions r at the upper part of your stomach now the lower part of your stoach is an actual contraction. Iwent to the hospital like a couple weeks about the same situation i had a tight feeling at the top of my stomach but i wasnt holding anything down i drank r ate… So that might be a real contraction

Ectopic is derived from Greek word ektopos, meaning out of place. Ectopic pregnancy was first discovered in the 11th century and by the end of 18th century, it took a lethal form. Many women were then known to die of ectopic pregnancy. Today, with advancements in the field of medicine, death due to ectopic pregnancy is rare. Nevertheless, an ectopic pregnancy can prove to be dangerous.
What Is An Ectopic Pregnancy?
Ectopic pregnancy is not a normal pregnancy. In normal pregnancy, the sperms reach the egg in the fallopian tube, where fertilization occurs and then, this fertilized egg travels on to reach the uterus and implants itself there to complete the gestation period. However, in ectopic pregnancy, the fertilized egg fails to reach the uterus for the gestation period and instead implant itself anywhere outside uterus, like cervix, fallopian tube, abdominal cavity. In general, in ectopic pregnancy cases, the fertilized egg implants itself in the fallopian tube.
Since in ectopic pregnancy, the embryo implants itself outside the uterus, it starts drawing blood for its growth, rupturing the organs and creating danger to life. As only the uterus is designed to hold the fetus, so ectopic pregnancy does not last for more than 3 months. It always results in the death of the embryo.

Chances are you have hemorrhoids. They seem especially likely in your case, because you have had problems with constipation. That means you may be straining when you go to the bathroom, and the straining, plus the stools themselves, can cause or worsen hemorrhoids.
However, only a doctor can tell you for sure. If you have been suffering with this problem for 3 years, it is long past time that you brought this up with your doc. It may be that you need a different constipation medicine, or a bigger dose of whatever you are getting. Something to soften your stools sounds like a good idea. Also, you have probably heard this already, but it is usually a good idea to drink lots and lots of water, which also helps you pass your bowel movements.
