33w and so much pressure

[Liss817]

I'm 33w+1 and for the past couple of days I've been feeling a lot of pressure down there by the pelvis more than normal. I know my little man head is down and last week my doctor said he's pretty low but its gotten a lot worse. I worked 12 hours on my feet all day for the past 2 days and this is when the pressure got worse. I can barely walk and it feels like his head is going to fall right out. On top of the pressure my feet have also swelled up to twice the size they were which I'm sure is from being on them for so long. but I'm just afraid that all this pressure isn't good and I'm not sure if I should call the doctor being that its a Saturday and I would have to call the emergency number and its really not an emergency. Has anyone else had this and what do you think I should do? My next appointment isn't until Thursday and I work again on Monday and Tuesday both 12 good shifts again

I am having pressure similar to you I'm almost 33 weeks. My doctor told me on Tuesday that the baby is very low and pressure is normal. As long as i don't have more then 5 painful contractions in an hour I am fine.  But I have a desk job so it might be different for you. I would call the doctor and check with them

I would def call because all that pressure could be an emergency baby could already be opening up your cervix and you still have some weeks to go...its better to be safe than sorry...I hope you feel better soon

I mean 12 hour shifts and I'm not sure if I should be working before I see the doctor again.
