The baby that is... Well I don't put much stock in how I've been feeling. Lots of braxton hicks with and without pain, some taking my breath away (due to constriction, not severe pain), severe pressure, having to pee right after I pull my leggings back up and it hurts to walk until I loosen up. I've been blaming it on having to sit for long periods of time or this just being the way you feel two weeks before you're due, but today when I stood up from my desk and actually had to lean on the cubical wall (because they're so stable) because she was pushing down so hard, I almost sat back down, I wondered - am I close? Are most Early November Mommies feeling like this or am I not giving credit where credit is due.

Re: I stood up and she pushed me back down.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one experiencing this! It actually happens right before I can actually feel my uterus contracting, I suddenly feel this tightness in my chest and it's hard to breathe. The contraction starts right after. Usually it's painless, but the thing that just makes most uncomfortable is the difficulty breathing through it. I mentioned it to my midwife and she said it was normal, so at least I'm not as worried as I was the first few times it happened.
