Big Baby On Board, Cervix Pressure Normal???

I'm 34w2d. At 33w4d I had an ultrasound and found out my potato is a chunky one. I'm talking measuring the same as a 36w. My doctor had doubts and measured as well. Well, turns out, she is indeed measuring like a 36w. She's been growing normally up until this around 25w when she was ahead by about a week and again this last time. He said that she looks to be 6 lbs & 13 oz already. And recently I've been feeling pressure around what I assume is my cervix. It's not constant it's just once in a while. But I have to stop to gather myself almost. Is this normal? Is it just my body trying to keep up with her growth? Help!

I think its normal, At least in your case I guess. I feel a lot of pressure down there as well but my doc told me it is due to the fact that my babies will be less than 15 months a part and that it is my 2nd and my cervix can easily ripe.

Sounds normal to me. Our bodies are just trying to prepare for the big day and yeah it's normal to feel pressure bc it sounds like she's already head down. I'm only 32 weeks and am way bigger than what I was with my son. Everyone keeps asking if it's twins but I keep reassuring it's just one but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have an 8 pounder! Some days I can barley get up without the pressure being so bad! We are almost there! Good luck!
