36+5 PRESSURE

[bowsfordays]

Okay ladies, I'm 36+5 & the pressure is unbelievable. I went to the doctors 3 days ago & I was a fingertip! Today I have had so much pressure I went pee several times and nothing was coming out because my bladders empty however I'm constantly feeling like I'm about to pee! I feel like my waters about to break and it hasn't. It only gets worse when I sit so I try to walk, but when walking and she pushes down I feel major pressure on my lower front part of my stomach and of course the peeing feeling. Could she be getting ready to make her entrance in a couple days or is this all normal.

I went to Albany med and they ultrasound my sac and it was super thick like FOREVER thick. The on call ob told me.

No-push birth means my daughter came out on her own. I didn't push. I was in labor, was checked on my back, told not to push I had .5 cm left, I turned into my side & she slid out. I didn't push. The doctor on call had just been paged. A nurse caught my baby (thank God).

What do you mean by no push birth? And how'd you find out she wasn't able to pop it herself?

[HotalingClan]

She's getting ready!!! :) the pressure is most likely her getting ready to pop that waters (or her trying to, my daughter's sac was too thick for her to pop but once they popped it I had a no push birth not even 20 minuets later)

All entirely normal for end of pregnancy.

This is how my labour started with my daughter in March last year I had so much pressure I could feel her head turning on my cervix then I started getting contractions then after 3 days of contractions they got worse and more regular and bam I was 4cm dilated when I got to the hospital and had her that night she was 37+1 weeks

She could be ready in about 2 more weeks or less. Try doing squats to help ease that lower pressure. They have awesome pregnancy videos on doing the squats correctly on YouTube. Good luck hun!
