Pressure

37+1 and finding that several times a day im having stomach pains ( not contractions most likely BH) but sometimes it feels like baby’s head is so low down I can’t stand, lean forward or walk for ages. Finding it incredibly hard unless I’m laying down all day. Is this just the way it is towards the end ????

I think it is just the way 🙈 I am feeling very similar at 36+3 and the pressure in my bum sometimes is actually painful 😅 I do find it is worse if I sit/lay down for too long so I try to do some walking each day and also use my birthing ball which helps my hips and pelvis a bit. Not long to go now

Sounds like me as well I'm 35 +5. Laying down or sitting down doesn't help me though - painful regardless. Hoping to get an induction date when I see the consultant next week.

Unfortunately that is just the way it is the last few weeks. I was the same with my first, it actually makes you really quite grumpy in the end. I felt like I was always moaning and fed up.. but that’s the reality of it. I’m exactly the same this time too at 37 + 4 and a baby above 97th! Sometimes I find if baby is in a certain position I get so uncomfortable and then he moves and I’m a bit better again. Side laying on the sofa is only position that eases it all. Paracetamol does help too so do take it x

@Victoria if I'm on my side she kicks the bed or sofa 😅 and favouring under my ribs and pushing herself down and get awful back ache and pgp and mine has been dodging between 35th and 50th centiles which is small compared to all my boys as they were all big babies x

Yes same here il be 39 wks on Sunday 😩 xx
