Hello ! I am 37 weeks on Monday & the last 3 days I have been having these really weird sharp pains across my lower stomach and down my back. I had this the week before I had my first but I was induced that time so have no idea how to know when labour is approaching naturally!
I had to be monitored at the hospital 2 days ago and on the monitor it was picking up a lot of “tightenings” that were causing me no pain.
I have this pressure feeling where my bottom is its like I need to go for a number 2 but I can’t ive had this constipated feeling for 3 days now it all just feels really heavy and a lot of
Pressure.
I had a growth scan and baby is all the way down into my pelvis I feel her really low now.
The pains are not regular so I know it’s not labour but just wondering if anyone had this when they were coming close or better still did anyone have this and still end up being late ? Don’t want to bother the midwife as I don’t think it’s labour just wondering if it’s meaning it’s coming soon ! Xx
