Ay mama, I know na nakaka-alala ang ganyang feeling, lalo na pag may tyan pain! Please get this checked with your OB agad, kahit maliit lang ang worry mo, mas magaan ang loob natin pag confirmed ng doctor na lahat okay. Those hilab and pain flashes could be practice contractions or something else entirely, pero sila lang ang makakaalam for sure.
A few of us moms dito nag-experience din ng ganyan around that time, at yun talaga ang sinabi ng doctors namin, better safe than sorry, kaya regular check-ups lang talaga. Your OB will know exactly kung anong stage na kayo and what to watch for, so trust them on this one. Ingat, okay? Sending you peace of mind mama!
