I'm 33+5 and feel like my sides are about to split open. I can hardly breathe and my bump feels very stretched all over. For past few days have had (on and off) a stitch underneath my bump and today have had a feeling of cramp across the top (actually cramp rather than period type cramps). OH thinks I'm exaggerating but I can hardly move. Baby has been feeling really heavy and when I turn in bed I feel as though my skin is going to tear! Also my back has started to really hurt as though bump is now too heavy for me.
I didn't have this with dc1. Anyone else feel like this? Will it get better (ie is it a growth spurt) or will it just get worse?

It sounds like you could do with wearing a bump support.

I'm 37 weeks tomorrow and feel the same. My bump is now really hurting me.

Thanks, I've tried but it makes the stitchy feeling underneath worse. Just trying not to move at all at the moment as I have spd aswell so everything hurts!
