Im 38weeks. Not sure if im dialated or not i dont see my midwife til next week and havent seen her for 3 weeks already :/ But i do hve dull like period pains :/ Due 19th.
Are they consistent or go to your back ? Your getting close :)
Ive always had a bad back so it feels like its constantly pulsing :/ ?? Yeah the ache has been consistant for the last 4 hours or so. Im scared now i know whats gunna happen. Lol.
Did you get tested for the strep b test ? That's the only reason I know I'm dialated. I've been walking to increase it more by pushing baby further down . Have you thought about doing it naturally or pain medication ?? I'm scared lol
Whats the strep b test? Not been offered anything.
I had an epidural with my first and felt a bit of a failure (i know im not but you wait all that time and i wanted to feel me push him out) so i decided this time around to start off with the lighter pain relief and see how i go and gradually get stronger meds if need be?? Sounds like a plan but ill prob be screaming.for an epidural lol. How about you? Im nervpus scared excited and happy all rolled in to one haha x
I'm not sure if every doctor tests for it but majority that I heard of do . Its just a cotton swab in the vagina and a swab around the anus , strep b is an infectiom that can be passed to baby during birth but its actually pretty common they would give you a shot during birth so it doesn't get passed . Awe your not a failure everyone is different and has different levels of pain at the time . I will most likely be screaming for an epidural lol I'm not that great with pain :)
Due July 18th. 34 weeks tmrw I've had cramping the past couple days and backpain. Have no idea if I'm dilated any as the doctor has started checking. I doubt I am though as baby girl is breech
I am 37+1 and I am dilated to 2cm and 60% effaced and my baby has already dropped into my pelvis. The last few days I have been having on and off contractions and a ton of pressure...can't wait to meet this baby already!
Ooo i hope she turns around for you. Im just about to get in the bath and see if.that helps at all. I think the strep b test may be a american thing? I see alot of women discussing.it on here im in UK.
I'm 33 + 5 weeks pregnant just hitting the very uncomfortable sleeping and very little rest
I'm 2 days ahead of you. How is your due date almost 3 weeks after me? I'm 34 weeks due July 18
Yeah that doesn't seem right^^ I'm due August 8th and I'm 31 weeks today lol. Feeling pretty great, but bub has definitely had a growth spurt and is running out of room :/ kick boxer in the making haha.
I lost a lot of movement my baby boy was a little kick boxer now I just feel him rolling around lol he's squashed .
I'm due Aug. 10Th and this has been my favorite trimester. My morning sickness has finally passed, my hormones are leveling out and I've been in a great mood :) Iam starting to feel like a balloon though haha.
I'm 34+2 weeks, get checked for dilatation June 17th so not sure on that but I've just been getting really sleepy again, having more braxton Hicks contractions, period like cramps on and off, some back pain and starting to get more pressure down there!!
Sorry for the really dumb question but when does the 3rd trimester officially start? Im 28+3 am I there yet lol? Sorry again
Yes you're there! Starts at 27 weeks!
Wow thankyou sml143 :) can't believe I made it!!
Pressure from baby engaging his head down into the pelvis :))))
34, 2 and really excited. This baby is so loved already. I don't know if I'm dilated any, I don't think my plug has come out yet. I'm due July 15 but my doctor said we might deliver one or two weeks early. His head is measuring pretty large. D:
