Feeling like when my period is coming 35 weeks pregnant

[Eyre89]

Hi

As the title says I feel just like when my period is starting. Aching lower back and stomach with heavy feeling, slightly aching breasts. I'm not in any great pain or major discomfort. I just feel achy.

Is this normal at this point? I'm closer to 36 weeks and had my ds at 35 weeks and didn't have this. I don't feel like baby is engaged however my bump has dropped a lot the past few days and braxton hicks have started again.

Is this something to get checked or just body getting prepared?

Hope all went well OP. Let us know when baby arrives

Good luck OP

All the best @Eyre89 .. hope it all goes smooth from here on.

Morning all. Thank you for the well wishes and support. George arrived at 11:18 last night weighing 7lb 10oz. He's super content and feeding well. We are allowed home soon.

Oh big congratulations! He is beautiful! Lovely name too. Welcome to the world, beautiful little George 💜 hope you're ok OP and delivery went well 💜

Oh Congratulations!!! He's gorgeous! Hope your feeling well and get home soon to settle in! Welcome George x

Beautiful baby congrats @Eyre89

Thank you all. We ended up being readmitted for jaundice and let out Monday. But all being well that should be it now. His big brother is totally smitten with him.
