3rd Trimester

A whole new wave of weirdness

I just turned 31 weeks yesterday and FTM and it seems like all of a sudden I'm experiencing a whole new wave of symptoms. I went to the doctor to get checked and was assured that everything was normal, but I still feel so strange. I have a ton of pressure, like the baby gained 10 pounds overnight and my vagina aches all the time. Sitting down is really starting to become uncomfortable. My tailbone has even started to hurt. I have this feeling of fullness in my vagina and was told that it was my bladder wall, but it almost feels like something is stuck in there.

 Has anyone else experienced stuff like this? I'm supposed to go back in tomorrow morning and was wondering if I should bring it all up again. They did put me on the monitors to make sure I wasn't contracting, but I'm afraid all of this could be leading up to labor.

 Sorry if TMI.

  • I think that's what's called "lightning crotch"?  I too have a lot of pressure going on as my baby has dropped.  Peeing constantly and my hips aches, sleeping is rough b/c I can't find a comfortable position, etc.  Just drink plenty of water and eat small frequent meals throughout your day.

    Well, you have officially hit 3rd trimester! I always said I was a happy prego girl until I hit 8 months. Then it stinks bad....and it hits like a wall.
