I strained for a poo really badly and now I have this weird feeling like the baby's head is coming out :/ no pain just an odd feeling of pressure. I'm 35 weeks, could I of damaged myself or start preterm labour off. I wouldn't of strained so much but I had to get it out.

I have the same problem. Also 35 weeks but been in hospital a few times already with risk of preterm labour contractions. Now suffering severely from piles and constipation which kill and make me scream out in pain. Have had to stop my sickness drugs which help control my Hyperemesis as they bung me up further. So scared to use the loo as I feel pressure like baby's head is about to come out. Also swollen like crazy on my lady bits as a result of straining. Can't even resort to suppositories or enemas anymore like I have been throughout my pregnancy as they cause contractions as doc/midwife won't allow it anymore in case it causes preterm labour.
