Think I'm getting close (:

soo yesterday around 1 I started feeling some pretty intense cramping and pains that would start in my lower back then wrap around the front to my belly. My stomach was rock hard for most of the day. I stuck it out because it wasn't anything I couldn't handle. Slept like a baby last night, and when I woke up its like nothing happen yesterday. Till now, the back pain is starting to form and slowly wrapping around the front. I wasn't sure (because this did not happen with my first, it all went so fast) that maybe it just was how she was laying or if it's signs of labor. I think my body is getting ready I'm 39 weeks 2 days today. When I went for my 38 week appt I was 3 cm dilated and 50% effaced she didn't seem to be worried I'd go soon so that's what made me think maybe it's just how she was positioned. Any advice ? I'm so excited that she's coming soon, I don't wanna jump to thinking that's what's going to happen! Haha thank you ladies !!

  • It could be either. I've been having pains like that for the past three weeks and I'm still pregnant! Really, unless they're regular and you can time them, these cramps and pains are just your body warming up. But that doesn't mean they aren't doing anything productive. It can be hard not to get your hopes up, but try to prepare yourself mentally to wait so as not to go crazy. Baby will be here soon enough!

  • Well today I had my 39 week appt and he "stretched" my cervix. Hopefully that helps move things along. Made me nervous tho because he also picked a date to be induced but yet told me I should go on my own so I had mixed emotions on that one lol

    Yeah, I'm definitely prepared and I have a toddler so I'm definitely distracted for the most part haha she helps keep my mind off of it(:

    Hope they are for you too!! Thank you very much! I don't have to go early but I definitely don't want to go late!! Friday is fine with me haha (Edd) haha and good luck!!!
