  Telling you what you want to hear: yes! Yay! You're in labor!
  
  The truth: you might be starting labor. You might just be having uncomfortable, but common 3rd tri symptoms. I had those same things and didn't go into labor.

  I had pressure for a month before I actually went into labor. When contractions become the most horrific menstral cramp feeling you might be in labor.

  Yeah. Any little bit of control I had left flew out the operating room window. Actually, I lost it when I had DD1. I have not been in control for 3.5 years.

  @mamafantastic yes, i do realize that thanks. no need to be rude, i'm obviously referring to labor and not knowing when it'll happen. some of us enjoy getting excited over the little things

  i'm not being rude, i'm being comical because of the absurdity of your original question to this particular audience, and then that followup comment to boot.  you sound a bit uptight.  your baby will come when s/he pleases, and there's very little you can do about it.  don't worry...  you won't mistake real labor, trust me.  take a deep breath and relax.  it's good practice for motherhood.

  I actually feel better in the 40th week than I did in the 39th. I just keep telling myself the EDD isn't a deadline, its an estimate that is easily off a week or more either way. If you're in the 39th week, the waiting is nearly over no matter when the baby comes. Though I've known from the start that FTMs are more likely to go past their due date than early. Can't say I'm thrilled about it, the opposite in fact. I'm ready to be done, but baby is happy where she is right now. As I tell people bothering me about missing my due date, "baby will come when she's ready to." The only thing predictable about giving birth is the unpredictability.

  wasn't looking for any psychics to jump in. if i really thought i was in labor i'd call my doctor, not jump on my computer. just looking for encouragement... like i mention in my original post as i state "tell me what i want to hear"...or the very least someone who is feeling the same way. you can read everyones birth stories and labor pains but none are identical so it's always worth asking around.

  Lack of sleep makes me pretty crabby. I was being funny. You don't get support unless you give it. I don't recognize your s/n name at all. Which means you probably haven't been very supportive, or even here the last 40+ weeks.

  OMG you guys are just amazing and @biggerinreallife I love you so much!!!

  
  

  OP most of us have had symptoms like this for WEEKS. There are several of us who have gone overdue and are getting more annoyed each day. Heck some of us end up sitting in a hospital bed for days because of concerns about baby with absolutely no symptoms of labour at all.

  
  

  So yeah, you coming here, out of the blue commenting about your pelvic pressure and back pain really pisses some of us off. I hope for your sake you are in labour and don't have to deal with the above.

  
  

  Now I'm going to text my husband, who is not allowed to stay with me overnight, and get comfortable in my hospital bed while I prepare for the fact that my body has not gone into labour on its own and the Dr's have decided to start my induction in 22 hrs. 

  
  

  I am sorry I don't have more sympathy, or a better answer for you.
