I have been crampy all day

Hi,

I can't remember from labor with dd if menstrual-like cramping is a possible sign of early labor? I tried googling it but for some reason it brings up preterm labor, not early labor.

I am trying not to sound the alarm too soon, but this feels so different from bh contractions! I am going to hop in the bath tub and see if makes a difference.

I believe it *can* be a sign I hope things are getting started

I think it definitely CAN be a sign. I never had it with DS1. I had it two weeks ago... and have been having it on and off ever since.... no baby yet. But in my mind I just tell myself that it's probably doing something to my cervix, which is less that is has to do during labor!

I've been having it on and off for a couple weeks. No baby yet, but I'm sure its doing something. With my second dc, I had menstrual like cramping starting just a few days before I went into labor.

I've had cramps for the last couple weeks.
