8 days to go !

** ADVICE NEEDED **

Ok, I'm having these constant sensations in my pelvis area . It feels like the muscle I use to push and hold my pee is cramping with these super super SHARP pains and I can feel my son just rolling and moving while these pains are occurring . I can do nothing but yell out when laying on my back so I lay on my side and it's more bearable but still the same . It's like he's using my bladder area as a bicycle pedal bc of the motions . Any idea what's going on ? Is he just really active bc I'm so close ? Am I in labor ? What is going on, please this is so much pain

Sorry I just read the whole post. I would call the doctor right away just to be safe. You might very well be in labor. Call the doctor and let us know what he says. :)

It doesn't sound like labor, it sounds more like the baby might be pressing up against a nerve. It's nothing to worry about. In fact it's very common. Unfortunately the pain will be off and on until the baby is born. The good news is there will be days were you won't feel any pain at all. Best thing you can do is lay in a craftable position. Try putting a pillow between your legs and laying on your side that should help with some of the pain. don't forget to mention this Pain to your doctor At your next visit. and if it gets too painful you can always go to the emergency room. Hope you feel better soon and congratulations you're almost there.

Those are probably contractions if they start to get painful and more persistent go to the hospital bc u could be in labor
