pressure

[helm85]

I'm 41+1 weeks and I have severe pressure on my bottom it feels like the baby is hitting nerves or else I have to go to the toilet ... I'm hoping it's the start of labour cause I'm been induced on Friday morning. Did anyone else have this pressure ???

Hopefully the sweep might move it along I'm back to no pains at all again :( when ur in the hospital get them to check the baby but I know mine doesn't move very much and the hospital told me 10 movements a day is fine even if they are all at the same time... let me know how ur getting on I hope it is it for you x

I'm in the same boat having severe pressure, back pain and cramps since bout 6am this morning, cramps are coming and going! I'm also 41+1 weeks and have an app at 3.30 in the hospital for a sweep I'm praying i dont need it and that this isn't yet another false alarm! Getting bit concerned though as baby isn't moving very much this morning

Definitely having contractions now. Still manageable and very irregular but definitely contractions. About 30 minutes ago I had to run to the toilet because I felt an overwhelming urge to do a poo but nothing happened. It's almost 3 in the morning here and I would love to have a hot bath but don't want to wake hubby yet, at least one of us should feel awake and ready for birth :-)

I'm 40+5 and having the same pressure feeling in my lower back/ bottom accompanied by period like pain that's been getting stronger the past 4 hours. Let's hope we'll have them soon, keep me posted :-)
