Hello and happy thanksgiving.

All day today I've been feeling pressure in my vagina area [with sharp pain when i walk and roll from side to side on my bed] and pressure in my butt as if I need to use the bathroom. [tmi] But, I've used it and the pressure is still there. Also, I've had several menstrual feeling cramps all day today and upper pains as well. Almost as if something was sitting on my upper stomach and i needed to move around asap. I don't want to panic seeing as this could all be normal but then again I don't want to ignore  anything. Oh, also I'm 32 weeks and 6 days.

Sounds like you are in labor, contractions feel like cramps in fact they are cramps.  You need to get checked cause of premiture labor if you are to far dilated they will not be able to stop them.  Good luck

Your baby is putting pressure on your cervix and butt parts.  It's mostly likely they've dropped.  You may also be having braxton hicks contractions.  If you walk around and the "menstrual like pains" don't stop - you need to call your doctor asap because it could be pre-term labor.



I felt pressure in my vagina, like it was going to fall out and it got a lil bit more intense the further I got along.  I was told my baby dropped into my pelvis and the baby's head was really low pushing on my insides...  So you may have the same thing going on.

I felt that with my daughter and she was just putting pressure down there plus I also have a short torso so not much more room to go.  Well I hope everything is fine.

you are definitely in labor.  Sounds like just the beginning if its still bearable, but you need to get ahold of your doc.  he will let u know whether to get to the hosp or stay home and chillax :)  Enjoy and good luck!!

yes thank you rexie.  Hydration is HUGE! I was on bedrest for two weeks in the hosp and that was the biggest thing they pushed.  My water had already broken, but i was three months early.  And still all they worried about was me drinking... and drinking.... and drinking... I was peeing every 5 minutes.  But that will help everything.  Again, good call rexie!!
