Feeling pressure at 33 weeks

[BFPhopeful2019]

Hello everyone,

This is probably the most ridiculous post but just wondering if anyone can shed some light for me.

For the last couple of days, I’ve felt a lot of pressure in my pelvis and below. I can only compare the feeling to similar when you have a tampon that hasn’t been inserted properly and is irritating and you body seems to want to dispel it, however, this feels worse pressure wise.

I’m 33 weeks and there’s a family history of premature births. Do I have anything to worry about?

I am sure this is totally normal and I’m being my neurotic self!

I'm 33+6 and I'm the same! My first DC was born at 34+4 so I'm a bit worried too, really hoping this baby stays put longer!

I’m 33+4, it’s just an odd feeling. I’m too busy at work at the moment to even consider this happening any time soon 🤣. I just don’t want this little pip to arrive too early. I’m a worrier by nature and any time in NICU would send me over the edge I think!

Bump

I had this. But only for a couple of hours before contractions (that I initially ignored thinking were false labour) started. Then baby was born about 4 hours later. At 34 weeks.
Don't mean to be alarmist but if something doesn't feel right to you, ring your midwife/doctor and get professional opinion.
I hope it's nothing and baby hangs on in a few more weeks for you x

Thanks @mylittlepony374, I hope your little one was ok despite arriving so early. I’m going to call I think as it’s very uncomfortable. Fingers crossed it’s just another joy of pregnancy!

He's absolutely fine. 15 months old now, happy, healthy, mischievous little man who never.stops.eating. 💜. I'm sure all will be fine for you too.

Aww that’s fantastic! I love to hear such amazing stories ❤️
