Gas? tmi

I know my little girl will be here soon. I have  eight days left (which is how early my first came) and since last Saturday I've dropped. First off i never have gas, maybe a little toot in bed but never gassy. All the sudden tonight I'm going off left and right and they are disgusting plus two bowel movements. I'm wondering if this means my body is getting anything extra out right before i go into labor. What do you all think?? Sorry tmi

I was sick the first eight months lol this last month has been the easiest even with the cramping. I never had bad period cramps so i think that makes me not have bad contractions or bh. I'll i know it's tomorrow whether it's cold or not I'm making my man and son go on a long walk, i might even go up and down the stairs here at my apartments tonight with my son while my man is working. He freaks out more then me, if i wake up with a bad dream he thinks I'm going into labor lol.

Lol I'm still working because I'm trying to keep add much time of as I can once my little man gets here but it's like all day the only thing I wanna do is curl up in bed and when I finally get to I can't get comfortable any way, my back will start to hurt then my hips I'm lucky if I get a few hours in a night but I guess he's just preparing me for the late nights haha I've been a little nauseous but nothing to major. I told my husband its funny one Swift kick to the stomach and i get sick or one to the bladder and I've peed myself there's just no winning lol

Haha batmama my lil girl is the same.  I can already tell everything will be her way.  This is going to be my bullheaded stubborn child!  Anyone nauseous?  I barely slept last night I was so nauseous...just sent my husband downstairs with the kids alone, know I need to get up but between the nausea and gas right now I just want to curl up in bed (if curling up was an option with this belly lol)

Amen lol its funny how many of us are so close and going threw the same thing. And I've given up with planning on her coining out early but again it's all up to her and from how shes been this whole pregnancy (stubborn) i wouldn't be surprised if she made everyone wait to see her

I'm due March 9 when I went to the dr Monday I was dilated 1-2 cm and 80% effaced my Dr said he'd be surprised if I made it til my next appointment Monday to everyone keeps saying they'll think I'll go early but at this point I'm thinking I probably will go late even tho I've tried sex and walking and spicy foods myself to help induce. ....my baby's slowed down a lot the past few days but it seems like around midnight he's getting stronger and stronger kicks lol hopefully we'll all go soon this waiting to meet him is the hardest part!

Your body is preparing :) same thing with me & boy do they smell bad. Gas, indigestion & runny or loose bowel movements are all a sign of you're body cleaning itself out before the big day. I'm due a day after you. Have you lost your plug?

Amen! And if i wasnt so tolerant to pain i wouldn't be able to have sex either, last couple times ive done it thinking i would go into labor soon after but nope nothing lol at least it may be helping my cervix which is a good thing

And as of Monday i want dilated but softened, my doc says i have a high cervix though, which i'm hoping wasn't the reason i didn't dilate all the way with my son six years ago and have to have a csection. Really hoping she comes out natural and I'm not getting the epidural this time around either, i want to feel the birthing process and i want to be able to walk after i have her

Same here. I just want to hold her and kiss her and show her how much love is awaiting here for her.  But then the second has been in my mind for the due date lol many doctor said he'd be surprised to see me for my appointment on Monday. She is still so active, mainly at night like usual, but i tell her she's trying to get out the wrong way lol

I'm 38+5 and I've been so gassy the last couple days to. ... especially when I'm laying down I try my hardest to hide it but I think that just makes it worse...it's bad enough I waddle when I walk and i feel as big as a hippo but to add this to it is just sad. .. Only 9 days left tho so I'm hoping time will fly until then I guess we just gotta deal with the nastiness lol
