This is my 3rd pregnancy and both my ds were od.
I'm 30+5 and the last couple of days I have been feeling so random.
Firstly a sense of dread and worry which isn't necessarily about the pregnancy just in general.
Baby has been moving fine and no complications have come up during this pregnancy. But the last couple of days I've been feeling very uncomfortable. I can't relax or keep still. When baby moves it can physically hurt. Like he's fully grown and there's no room for him yet I have two months to go. I feel heavy down below sorry tmi but like I'm going to yet myself even tho I don't need the loo. Or even like the baby head is about to poke out.
Ridiculous I know but its the best way to describe how I'm feeling. And I never went through anything like this with my other two.
Any similar experiences?

Do you know whether it's a boy or girl? If you have had 2 boys & this is a girl it could be a hormonal thing?

I know when I was pregnant with DS in my 1st pregnancy I Was quite chilled out & relaxed but with DD I was very different... And strangely enough that's their personalities too. DS very laid back & DD is like a whirlwind Xmas Smile

The heaviness thing is probably due to the fact that this is your 3rd pregnancy & muscles, ligaments etc have already been stretched. I had this with DD (DC2) too. I felt I carried her much lower than DS & she could give me some right kicks to the bladder.

Its another boy! I do think your right with regards to the fact I'm already stretched and probably not fully recovered from last pregnancy ds1 is 3 and ds2 is 15 months. Its just a weird feeling and probably just me worrying I can be like that. Thanks for your thoughts tho. Made me feel better x

It sounds like anxiety to me - a sense of dread that you can't put your finger on. Most certainly hormonal. Do you feel panicked?

Mylittlepuds. Most definitley but not all the time. Recently in the last few days tho. One minute I'm fine then next panicky over the slightest thing.

Honestly I reckon it will just be hormones and hopefully settle once the baby is here Smile hope you're having a good day.
