35 weeks- pelvic pain and pain in lower belly

Megs0913

Good morning ladies! So today I am 35 weeks and 3 days, since yesterday I have been having sharp pains in my "lady parts" and when I am standing there is pressure and dull pain in my lower belly. It doesn't "look" like baby has dropped yet, but I am feeling pretty uncomfortable. Anyone else feeling the same? Thanks!

It doesn't get any better- your pelvis is just starting to make room for baby.  My pain started at 35 weeks and here I am 39+ and its so painful to even walk.  Hang in there.

Yeah it won't get better, but I promise that it goes away immediately after you have the baby. This is my second and I find it hard to even lift one leg at a time. You're not alone, but the only cure is to have that baby. Hang in there.

Yes I'm feeling like this. Baby is head down for me and my lady parts feel like I'm a nut cracker. I'm getting gas pains too, so that's lovely too.

I asked my OB about the horrible pain I was experiencing down in my lady parts area and he told me that it is very normal and that some women describe the pain as being stabbed with a knife down there. I said that sounds about right. Just baby and your hips trying to make some room.

Im 41 wks and its extremely painful. I cant sleep at night now because no matter what side I lay on I feel like my pelvic bones are being ripped out. I get shooting sharp pain from my lower belly to my vagina all the time. I wish that I could say it gets better but it only gets worse. Im luckily almost done but I hope you can find something to help.
