3rd Trimester

did LO drop???

last night all of the sudden i started to feel contraction like cramps in my pelvis, and LO was going crazy in there, moving around, all one side then the other side and i could tell LO was trying to get comfortable or something but it was intense movement, i got up walked around and after awhile LO settled down, but today at work someone just said wow you really dropped! I think that is what happened as well but this being my 1st i don't know what to look for. I did feel more pressure this morning going up the stairs.

Re: did LO drop???

  • I remember feeling as if I could take deeper breaths when my first son dropped - even though I hadn't realized before then that I wasn't able to breathe deeply.  Do you notice anything like your lungs being able to expand more? If so that might be what happened!

  • That, or flipped.

    I think LO dropped over the weekend for me too, but I'm not counting my chickens until I get checked by the doc this week.  I, personally, felt like I had a vacuum-like negative pressure in my chest cavity where my lungs could open up again.  His butt consistently sits about 2-3 inches lower than it used to, which was right below my ribs.

    The 'pressure' thing is the only thing I can't really wrap my mind around.  I get more zings around my pelvic bone and sciatica is worse, but the pelvic floor pressure is intermittent at best.
