I think this baby is going to fall out

S&D_2005

I'm carrying so low with this pregnancy. Whenever I stand up after sitting down, I get a pain in my vag. I have all this pressure, and it feels like baby is sitting on my bladder about 90% of the day. I don't remember DD being so low. I keep telling people that I have a feeling this baby is going to just slide out because of how low he/she is. Anyone else like this? How do you deal with the lightening crotch?

OMG!!!!  Me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  All the pressure down there is just too much sometimes.  I can't stand the feeling after I've been sitting down and it's like a huge gush of blood just flew to my vagina.  I can feel my labia swelling up immediately.  It's horrible.

But, I digress.  At least I'm healthy and so is my baby.  So complain over.

OMG, I hear you on the swelling. I feel like I need an ice pack on my vagina all day long. It really hurts. Poor DH hasn't gotten any action in a long time because of this. I was never like this with DD. I had the best sex-drive. Now I'm in a rut. But I am definitely glad baby is fine, and so am I. If the pressure is doing anything, I just hope its getting the dilation going so I can have a VBAC instead of a repeat cesaerean (but not until full term).

Uh yeah, I feel like he is RIGHT there! Ready to come out any time now! Pubic bone hurts...sometimes vag feels tingly and when I sit to drive I can feel the pressure big time down there! Sometimes I think its my seat belt...but it's just baby pressure!!!

My little girl is sitting up high. I know that in most respects that is great, but she is sitting right below where my stomach now is and I have constant pressure on my chest and find it hard to breathe at times. However, I'm not getting lightning crotch so I can hardly complain... well, I mean I can.. but most people would just laugh at me b/c I have it so good..

I have thought the same thing, sometimes it feels like she is waaaaaaay down there. Very odd sensation

My baby is really low too!  He's been that way all along.  I haven't had any kicks to my ribs, indigestion, heartburn, or trouble breathing.  It's because he's nowhere near that part of my body!

This time around I am carrying so low! With DS#1 he was so high, I had horrible heartburn. Everyone keeps saying that it looks like I have already dropped. I totally feel like he is just going to fall out, and that I have to hold my belly when I walk as well!

I have this as well. Its progressively gotten harder to bend and everything as she gets heavier. But I have been told either extreme, really high, or really low is bad. I swear it has to be weakening my cervix/water whatever you call it. I won't be surprised if my water breaks. I know that sounds silly, but with all the pressure Idk how it hasn't already. It sucks, hang in there.
