Diarrhea and 37 weeks +1

[Madhousemam]

Hi all sorry to post such a tmi but I have had Diarrhea for that last 2 days just before I have to go to the loo my belly tightenes up (belly has been tightening for months now and quite normal for it to be rock solid) went to the midwife last week and I was 3/5 engaged does this mean things are happening or should I just not worry about it I haven’t had any show or anything like that it’s my 4th pregnancy if that makes any difference but it was 8 years since my last and forgotten all about the early stages of labour

I had the same with baby number 5 and by the next afternoon I was in labour and had him 3 hours after getting to hospital x

In a way I really hope this is the case with me as in so uncomfortable I was booked in for a c section next week but they rang me to put it back for a week. I would just like the energy to nest like everyone goes on about now as so tired I’m barely staying awake past 9pm 😂😂

Get ur sleep in while u can coz u might not get much for the first few weeks/months...I was the same I was always tired near the end u ain't got long left to go and then u will have a baby to keep you awake haha x

I’m 35+1 and just been searching about this! Had bad stomach for 2 days and have been constipated my whole pregnancy except these last two days. Also the tiredness is something else, I’m having to have a nap in the middle of the day which is so unlike me. Hoping it’s the start of things moving and I won’t go over - I live in hope!
