Prssure

[BabyHardiman]

Is anyone else feeling pressure in your bottom?  It almost feels like intestinal pains?  I can barely walk sometimes.  My doctor says it's normal stretching, if this is "normal" stretching we are in for a long month!!

I haven't felt any "pressure" in my bottom... only front.  My only real problems these days are heartburn and lack of sleep. I think though it might be the iced tea I drink with dinner...hee, hee. Did you have a nice Easter? I know that there are more mommies for May than just us!

I'm a May mommy as well.  Due May 25th.  I don't have the pressure, but I am dealing with the lack of sleep and heartburn.  I am just now getting to the point of not being able to tie my shoes.  32 weeks down, only 8 to go!!

Well I am 30 weeks and I am having alot of pain and alot
of pressure and I am going the doctor this afternoon so I
am going to ask and see if she can check me cause with
my daughter at 27 weeks I was already dialating so I am
kind of worried cause my pressure and pain are worse or
atleast feel worse than when I was pregnant with my daughter.
I will let you know what the doc says.

I am also due on May 25th!  Everything seems to be going well here. Just been hungry alot lately. Seems like I'm gaining weight faster than what I'd like because I've been hungry so often.

I am due May 5th but may possibly have a c-section at 38 weeks, the baby is breech.  My doctor only performs scheduled c-sections on Tuesday (funny huh) so, her b-day would be April 22nd.  Hope she flips!

no pressure in my bottom, but sometimes I'll feel some pressure on my cervix.
I think my weight has plateaued a little bit.  I had an appointment yesterday and I had only gained about a pound and a half in 2 weeks (i'm up to 131.6 from my pre-preg. weight of about 100)  before that i gained almost 10lbs in a month.  ugh!  

babyplz: I haven't even tried to wear shoes that tie in a looong time!

i had the pressure really bad a good month ago. since not working it comes and goes. i was short of breath for quite awhile but that too has gotten better. no heartburn! ugh! i want heartburn sooooo bad!! had one night i woke up from leg cramps and nothing since as far as that. now im just tired and light headed all the time. i dont ever remember any of this with kennedy. i did have heartburn tho and towards the end woke up with leg cramps.
oh yea my sleeping is not so well anymore i flip from side to side and prop and sit just to get comfortable. oh the heck are we suppose to "rest now"  in this condtion? lol hope everyone is well!

[BabyHardiman]

My doc says you get heartburn if the baby sits high in the uterus, it pushes up on the stomach.  Maybe you are carrying lower with this one.  =)

The leg cramps SUCK!  I had them, then stocked up on bananas and orange juice and drank and ate for a week, it went away for a good month and now it's all back again!  Ouch!!

I'm 32 weeks and I've been having more pressure low this week.  Sometimes it makes me feel like I need to have a bowel movement, but I don't.

With 8 more weeks to go, I hope she hasn't "dropped" yet!!

I'm 33 weeks and have been having so much pain and pressure lately. At times it feels like she's going to just drop out. I'm at the point where I'm uncomfortable no matter what. If it's not the pressure then it's the heartburn. It's like I can't win either way. I'm am so miserable and can't wait till this is over, and just to think I have 7 more weeks of this.
