Pregnancy Info HOME

hi all ive been having alot of pressure down there i was thinking all kinds of things like the babys head as engaged and ime only 28 weeks i went hospital for a scan and she said the baby was measuring big and thats why i feel heavy down there because ime not used to carrying big she also said to me ive got to come back in 2 weeks for a diabetes test to rule out thats y the babys not big ime really terrified

I have had a pain a little too...and I went for my first ultrasound appt today(I am 5 wks 6 days) and they saw the sac but he said there was some "fluid" off the sac, and he said he didn't know what it was..and I might have some discharge??????? what is this?

Hello Ladies: I am currently 26 weeks and am also experiencing a severe nagging pressure in my v____al area. The pain increases the more I'm on my feet--which isn't very often since I am on bed rest at home. I am not taking any chances with this pregnancy since I delivered prematurely at 24 weeks less than a year ago. My daughter was in the NICU for 3 weeks before she pa__sed and I miss her dearly. I felt the same nagging pressure during the last pregnancy and the doctors kept telling me "there was nothing to worry about" and that I could continue with my normal routine--which included work, cleaning the house, exercising and everything else...including intercourse. Now I see an ob/gyn once every two weeks and a high risk specialist every two weeks as well. I schedule my appointments so that I see a doctor at least once a week simply for peace of mind. The high risk doctor checks my cervix every week and found that I was having contractions during my last visit which is the same visit I complained the most about the v____al pressure I was experiencing. Due to my history and ultrasound results my specialist immediately put me on bed rest--just to be safe. My advice to anyone who has pressure is to bring up your concerns with your doctor, no matter how much of a nag you may see yourself being. Insist that you schedule an ultrasound that that measures your cervix, because chances are they won't do it unless you ask. My biggest regret is not being more forceful with my complaints during my last pregnancy. I really feel like I should have been on bed with my last pregancy as well or at least off of work and off my feet. Good luck to everyone out there and best wishes.

so sorry for your loss i asked my docter and she said i was carrying a big baby and i wasent use to carrying big babies ime only 28 weeks and have had this pressure for 3 weeks now and i feel it more when on my feet too

hi, ive been having cracking noises in my c section and im just wanting 2 know wot it is. as its really painful.

When I get up from a sitting position I am so stiff down there also. I feel like I was riding a horse for 2 hours. The inside tops of my thighs kill me. I am 37 1/2 weeks and have only gained 17 pounds so it's not from excesive weight either. I didn't have this with my last 2 pregnancies. My doctor says it is definitely pressure. Once the head becaomes engaged you get that pressure. Sometimes I feel like his head is right there.

I think just about every pregnant girl has felt this pain.Don't think it's serious. It's almost like a tiny contraction.

hi, ive been getting cracking noises near my c section scar and i cant sleep at night as it really hurts.is my scar gonna rupture as im at a high risk.

why is it that when i am about to start my period my pubic bone becomes very sore?

hi all ive been hurting in my pubic area and groing for past couple of weeks and now its got worse ive strted making clicking noises aswell and cant roll over in bed i rtang my m/w and she said sounds like spd ive never heard of this ive read up about it as anybody else had this and what i like to no is does it get worse as baby gets bigger ime 30 weeks pregnant

I HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF STABBING PAIN THAT ALOT OF YOU ARE REFFERING TO AND I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT IS CAUSING IT. I AM 37 WKS AND I THINK MY BABY IS READY TO COME OUT AT LEAST THAT'S HOW IT FEELS. I HAVEN'T TALKED TO MY DOC YET BUT I WILL IN A COUPLE OF DAYS. BUT IT'S ALMOST TO THE POINT THAT I WANT TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM JUST TO SEE IF I AM DIALATING OR IN EARLY LABOR.. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL.

these pains are probably bearing down pains where the baby's head is engaged in the cervix ready for birth. It is completely normal

I am 37 weeks and have been having pain similar to this all day. The difference is mine shoots down my legs. Is that still normal?

Hey girl. Sort of sounds like you are having contractions if the pain is shooting down your legs. When I was in labor with my first I had BAD pains all down my legs.

Can someone help me? I found this, after doing a search, because here is what i'm having: When i'm walking, or when i turn over in bed, or get up from sitting....i have a soreness that i feel at the sides of the v____a, near my thighs....like at the bones. Sometimes the soreness feels like it reaches my lower back. I'm 17 weeks, and i go to see my ob, so i'm wondering what kinds of questions to ask him. Is this similar to what you're all describing? If so, any clues as to what it could be?? I'm really worried. Good thing i have an appt. tomorrow.

hi sounds like what i had when i walked it hurt me in my groin and rolling over in bed also hurt i thought it was spd but weeks later it went if you look up spd and look at the signs it says if your in alot of pain it could be spd. mine went in the end never fount out what i had
