Pressure in bum area!

[marley]

As the title says.. Feels like I need to parp or poo ..

It's slightly uncomfortable.

Is this a sign of labour?

Xx

Could be the pressure of baby's head moving down I had this for three days before having Ellie..x

 

[marley]

Thanks for replying Jaycee. I'm hoping she comes in the next 3 days, i'm feeling lots of movement and pushing down x

 

[Jayceesmumma]

Could be a sign of things moving for u or baby may just be getting in the right position.. Hopefully you won't be waiting too long now

 

[marley]

I hope not, I keep crying and feeling sorry for myself.
I feel like the excitement is being supersede by 10 million other emotions.

Is that normal!!? Xx

 

[Jayceesmumma]

It is babe just part of pregnancy etc ur near the end now ur hormones are everywhere and it's ok to cry it out! Let it all out and you'll feel better

 

[marley]

Thanks Jaycee I feel less like a crazy person now xxx

Yeah absolutely normal. Its a scary/exciting time. I am anxious yet nervous and i know what to expect.

 

[marley]

Thanks little miss..

Glad I'm not the only one awake! My sleep cycle is a mess!!!

Think I might have experienced some type of contraction just now :/

Xx

 

[littlemiss83]

How are you now Marley - anything else??

I'm always up late, i'm a night owl even when not pg.

I was up til 4am last night - up at 10 for wee 1.

 

[Jayceesmumma]

How r u feeling now Hun??xx

 

[marley]

I've felt sick all day.. the only way to describe it is, as though i have gastric flu without the being sick or dihorrea.

At 7pm this evening my bump went very hard, rock solid and i started to experience some uncomfortable 'contractions' i think they were. They were coming every 15 minutes, now they have stopped. about 8pm

I was slowly allowing myself to believe that i'd be in labour tonight.

I've had that achy back tummy/sicky feeling all day...

I think i might be close ladies. Put it this way i wouldnt be suprised if i woke up in labour

What do you think?

 

[marley]

Thanks for checking up on me jaycee and lilmiss!

Sorry I didnt reply i completely forgot i was up so late.........x

 

[littlemiss83]

OMG

I defo think there's gona be a labour thread v.soon.

You have all the signs!!

 

[marley]

Do you think so little miss..

There wasn't alot of pain, but definitely uncomfortable. I havent experienced BH the whole pregnancy.

Stomach is still rock solid xx

 

[littlemiss83]

Yeah for defo - maybe not tonight or tomorrow, but very soon.

Your body is preparing. One common thing is sickness/diarreah/generally feeling crappy & lots of BH, pain might not start for a while, you dont have long til your due date anyway, and my MW told me with my 1st that our bodies start preparing 1/2 weeks before, because I was 2cm dilated wen I was induced at 39 weeks.

 

[Jayceesmumma]

Doesn't seem like much longer for u now if you've not had many bh before then these could be bh getting u ready now!
Emptying your bowels alot is a sign of things moving forward but could still be a few days yet..
Get some rest while you can and keep eating and drinking often to build up your energy!
Keep us updated xxx
