Q: Can I Be Going Into Labor Soon? Help!!!!!!!

Hi ladies,

i am 35 weeks pregnant and this is my third baby, that I 'am expecting. Has anyone felt their baby move so much that it actually hurts, I mean she moves from left to right and so forth that its fell like she is pushing down. I have a very strong feeling that I am already dialated some. What I really want to know if anyone has felt this and has gone into early labor?

Well, the fact that she's moving that much probably means she's restless and ready to come out. But you'll definitely know when you're in labor. Some people are dialated for weeks before delivery, so that doesn't mean anything. She's not just going to slide out of you during dinnertime or something. :)

I heard that on friends. Joey's sister asks .Rachel if she ever worries that her baby will just slide out of her during the day. :lol:

my sister inlaw followed me around the grocery store when I was in labor because she honestly thought she might have to catch the baby.

By the way, my sister inlaw was a bit on the slow side.

...Wow. See, now i'm thinking of the beginning of .Monty .Python's .The .Meaning .Of .Life, where the mum is washing up and the baby just falls out onto the floor. :lol:

and then there is the best musical number ever.

chances are you are dilated some, as this can happen earlier with later pregnancies (this being your third). I was dilated to 2.5 for 6 weeks with my last baby - and she was still overdue by 8 days. As far as painful moving, I never felt that.

I hope you feel better soon.

i totally feel you on this one!! My .Dr told me that at 36 weeks, she shoudl be calming down a lot due to no more room left. But I beg to differ!!! She's moving more than ever and it's painful!! I drink a lot of milk and eat lots of yogurt so maybe i'm giving her toooo much calcium!! When i'm on my side if I don't put my hand under my belly she'll kick into the matress and that hurts baddd!!!

4 weeks to go and I hope she calms down a little!!
My heartburn finally went away, prob. Because of her dropping!!!! Soooo exciting!!!

i use a wedge pillow so my belly don't droop to the bed. She is still moving but not as much. I am starting to feel some irregular contractions. So maybe it will sooner then later that I can deliver her. Very nervous but excited. I went to the doc and she told me that she is already head down sooooo. :shock: :d so we will see. The doc will start doing internals starting april 5th so we will see then whats going on down there..

Yea, I get my first internal on april 10th! .F.U.N!!! My tolerance for pain is wayy high, so hopefully i'll be ok.

I made 36 weeks today and she thrusts her body onto every side of my belly. It really look slike she wants out of there!! When my fiance sees her he actually drops his jaw because of how forceful she is! Many times I gasp because of the force...It hurts. Not like ouch...But aughhh...Lol!!

Hopefully she'll calm down soon!!!

No prob!! It's soo cool to have other pregnant women to talk to and share similar experiences!

Is this your first child? Do you know the sex? How's the father taking the whole being "big pregnant"? What are your labor plans? (drug free vs. Epidural)

Fatfamily...Are you trying to still stir up something??

Drop it...You're not gonna have any babies so pleaseee just disappear!!

Sarah

3kizz...We're getting sooo close to our due dates!! Isn't it exciting?? I can't wait!! I go to the .Dr on the 10th(monday) and I hope he at least tells me if she's head down. Not like the insane pressure in my pubic/pelvic area isn't enough to tell me!!
