Pressure sensation

[Emma58]

For the last half an hour or so I keep getting a funny pressure sensation low down in my pelvis. Baby is moving about like mad and I know his head is down could it just be that he is pushing his head down and making it uncomfortable?

I've had to go to the loo twice to check i've not wet myself luckily there's nothing there.
Is this normal? It''s freaked me out a bit.

yeah I get that too all the time at the moment. Last Dr's appointment they said baby was low down and I think it's just the pressure of the head on your pelvis and bladder. It freaked me out a bit too at first but now I'm used to the sensation.

Eek it's not time yet.

It feels like he's trying to push his head out - I'm not sure if it's because he's wiggling his head about down there or what.

ive been having it for weeks asked my midwife about it today
she said its completly normal something about pressure on your vulva as it grows which also gives you swollen lady bits!!!
she said its hardly ever conected to labour so dont worry to much
