Extreme pressure

I am almost 30 weeks and past 2 days have had more pressure than normal down there. Is this normal. I had a 3d u/s and baby is head down not sure if that contributes to it.

Thanks ladies you make me feel better that it is normal for 30 weeks. I do have a doctors appointment this morning so I'll mention it. This better be a quick 10 weeks lol

Yeahh its because the baby is head down and the head is the heaviest part of the body right now. I have been feeling pressure since around 25 weeks or so. My hubby thinks its funny to walk behind me and quack while I waddle .. ugh only 10 weeks to go!

I am 31 week and 1 day and I have been having the same thing and it's very annoying, everyone says its just cause the baby is head down and is starting to gain weight at a much faster pace than before which why we are feeling the extreme pressure....if you start to get more than 5 BH an hour than to call your dr to make sure it isn't premature labor.

I didnt think ultra sound would effect anything just perhaps that he is head down now idk but it's uncomfortable to walk or stand

The 3d u/s does not affect the baby in any way.  I think it's  the way baby is positioned.
