38+4 weeks

[Mummywithlove]

im 38+4 weeks pregnant and the past few days every time my baby boy moves it really hurts all over! i get lots of pain in my privates and it gets painful if i stand for so long or i recline slightly on my sofa, the only place where is comfy is on my side...
i constanly feel like i need a wee and a poo but when i go NOTHING! baby is awake all the time but only hurts me at night tine and killing its me hurts, why is he doing this to me,? does it sound like hes coming? anyone having this experience

Emma x

i also am getting loads and loads of movement by my pubic bone! n that feels weird lol x

Sounds like he's fully engaged and banging around your pelvis. I sympathise - think dc3 'dropped' fully today and feel similar!

If he's dropped, he's more ready to go so it might not be long but I don't think there's any predictable timescale to it (annoyingly). Only thing I would say is that IF you have 'serious constipation pains' (but nothing is coming) so that you are groaning/shouting, you might want to call the labour ward. (DC1 was born 2.5 hours after I woke up really needing to do a poo... Didn't really notice stomach pain as the bottom pain was so severe!!)

Good luck!

thanks for the reply, its really weird cuz when i do go poopoo i get a really uncomfortable pain in my bottom and my vag but only for a few seconds,, ive had it for a few days and really really bad wind , xx
