Hi all,
I am just under 38 weeks pregnant with my second child, and honestly excited not nervous about the birth etc, just can't wait to meet little one!
I have been going to the toilet more frequently and this morning had a bout of diarrhoea. I haven't eaten anything different to usual that would cause bowel movements to change
I have had back ache throughout my pregnancy and also pains around the groin.. I've had mild period like pains (which I put down to Braxton hicks)
I dont want to psych myself out thinking I'm in labour, as I said, I've had back pain and groin pain throughout the pregnancy so I'm just putting it down to that. I know what preparing for labour is like and I keep telling myself its not yet but there is a tiny voice in my head saying its coming
This pregnancy is so different compared to my last pregnancy, and I'm still working whereas last time I took leave asap. And I have been a lot more active etc
Am I going crazy or does it seem like labour could be happening in the next couple of days?? Also is it more likely for me to released sooner (providing baby is happy and healthy and there are no complications) seen as it is my second child?
