Baby moving lower down at 33 weeks?

Is this likely? I’m 33+4 and I feel really different in the last day or so.

On Thursday I was walking and felt an unbelievable need to go for a wee all of a sudden, and honestly thought I was about to lose control and have an accident. I’d only been to the loo about 10 minutes before. The urge subsided but have since felt baby down ‘there’ a lot more since then.

Also since then, my heartburn has really lessened (managed to not spend the entire day yesterday clutching a box of Rennie’s as has been the case for the last few weeks!) and I haven’t had pain around my ribs when laying down since then either.

I am also suddenly ravenous (shovelling biscuits down as I type) for the first time in weeks. I’ve felt so full up and uncomfortable lately and been eating mouse size portions, and this is the first time I’ve actually felt hungry for a while.

First baby so never really quite sure what is normal and not. Baby was head down at last midwife appointment two weeks ago, although that’s not to say he’s been in that position ever since.

Baby's possibly moved- there's still some weeks for them to have a tumble or two! (I'm also 33 +4 - she's been transverse until scan last week and now head down- awful heartburn so that could be a thing!?)
I've also lost alot of my appetite, constipation stepped up a gear.....it's just one of them OP...out of interest any particular biscuits????

Ah! Are you also due 8th Jan?

I intended to get some Bourbon biscuits but didn’t want to turn the light on and disturb the dogs, so ended up with malted milk Grin trying to resist the temptation to scurry downstairs for more. I’d almost forgotten what it feels like to be hungry!

Ohh I love a malted milk!! Go get your bourbons!! :) ! I'm sure the pooches will understand!
Bit of a hard pregnancy for me this one - that was my due date but cSection now booked for 17th December and have to stay in hospital until then - baby all happy and healthy but have placenta pravia and had (3rd) abruption last week so they don't want me to risk leaving hospital again - bit crappy on run up to Xmas and my youngest Dd only 14months missing her loads!

But bump being really looked after and everyone safe which is more important- final little bit! (She just needs to stay put for a few more weeks !:) )

Malted milk biscuits and pregnancy is the best

Oh sorry to hear that Tadda - it sounds as though you are being very well looked after though. Good luck for the 17th!
