Hi,
I have read your query & understood your concern.
- there is possibility of heavy dinner with indigestion-which may result in cramps.
-apart from abdominal cramps there are few more signs of labor pains like- labor pains come in succession the distance between two pains goes on decreasing & the intensity & duration of pain increases.Uterine tightening with the cramps, a feeling of lower descend of baby with each pain.There is associated increased vaginal discharge.
Take rest, try with light diet, plenty of water salt & sugar. Add a pill of duadelan ,& antacid like Gelusil . If the symptoms reseed, well & good .
* But in case the pain increases/there is no relief within 24 hours- you should consult your treating doctor .
Thanks
