  Sounds pretty normal. Hormones are prepping those hips and everything to push out that baby. Most of us have major pelvis pain. Me included. I'm 38 weeks too.
  
  As for pushing... Try and add fiber to your diet so you don't have to push too hard. Should help.

  I agree with adelems. Pelvic pain is normal. Just spreading for baby to get here. I've been having some 'pinching' pain up in my V and my groin is cramping non stop. No doubt all this is uncomfortable but unfortunately for us, it's just part of the process good luck and try more water for the #2 issues. You'll be amazed at how much extra hydration can do to help alleviate some of the misery.

  Thank you ladies , I've been paranoid ever since my doctor sent me to the hospital from a non stress test so I'm freaking out about everything that my body is going threw right now

  My doc also gave some stool softenets to help too...

  Try taking a Calcium/magnesium supplement in liquid form. Not only is it a stool softener but sometimes the cramping is from baby sucking all your calcium up- it can even make your contractions less intense!
