Pelvic pressure- beware TMI

in 3rd Trimester

Anyone have pelvic pressure that feels like you need to poop, but you know you don't? I know I don't need to go because I just went and it was all lovely and loose... tried to go again and not much to my surprise I don't need go again. But the feeling of needing to poop is still there and somewhat bothersome.

Is this just pelvic pressure from LO?

    Could just be pressure.....have you had issues with the dreaded hemmorhoids?? Sometimes if they are flared up and swollen it can feel like you have to go #2.

    I've had a lot of pelvic pressure lately, too, and my OB said it was from LO.

    I don't have hemmorhoids... that I know of. I don't really know any indicators of having them though. I will have to research.

    My friend said this is what her contractions started out as. Is the pressure coming in waves? If so, I'd call your doctor.

    This!
     
    With my first child the first pain I had felt like RLP and then I felt like I had to go to the bathroom.  I couldn't go but it felt like I had to go really bad.  About a half an hour or so of this going on it dawned on me.....I'M IN LABOR!!!!  I would pay attention and see if it is timeable like PP said!

     Exactly how my contractions started with LO #1. I really thought I was having trouble with a BM so I was drinking prune juice and coffee and of course that didn't help and gave me horrible heartburn during labor!

    Definitely would check on the labour possibility!  A lot of people start out with the BM thing, but if it keeps feeling that way you could definitely be close!
