Question

When i urinate I'm getting menstrual like cramps...Normal at 30 weeks?

Answer 1

Actually I've been having the same problem for about 2 weeks now although I'm a bit farther along than you (39 weeks).

I talked to my doctor about it and she said I had a mild UTI, she gave me antibiotics and it went away. The pain, however, did not. I asked her about it again and she said it's probably from the baby's head putting pressure on the bladder.

I would assume that it's probably the same thing for you. Make sure that your doctor checks you for a UTI though just in case.  

Answer 2

def not normal.. make a doc apointment.. could be braxton hicks i guess? or u may have a urinary track infection.. either way ur OB will let u know really fast!

Answer 3

i would ask ur doctor could be a uti. but sometimes when i go i get crampy feelings almost like shooting pains. was told either contractions or ur babies head pushing down on cervix that is if your babies head is down there allready like mine was. im now 40 wks so alot further then you. just take what opnions you get on here and call your doctor immediatly

Answer 4

Are you sure they are menstural cramps? When I go to the washroom, I feel some cramping and its on my right side. Its because your bladder is so full, it hurts! Honectly, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Make sure you are drinking a lot of water and going to the bathroom regularly.
