31+3 weeks could I be close to labor don't want baby to come too early

dominican22 · May 2015

So since about 4 days ago I believe the baby flipped but what has me worried is that when I wipe after I pee I feel a bump down there like the head of the baby could that mean that on to of flipping he dropped too?? My first pregnancy u was induced so I can't really say what are the signs of labor being near. HELP please

If your worried I would ring your midwife, put your mind at ease. Could just be the feeling of pressure if baby has turned. X

The baby is so far up I would be surprised if you could feel her just by wiping. If her head was that low she would be coming out. But I'm not a doc so if you are really worried call your OB.

If you really think you can feel the baby's head, call your doctor. There's not much anyone on this forum can say or do.

you feel something actually coming out? or you feel something harder than usual like a lump or swelling? after 4 days you should have called your doctor on this if you're concerned.

If you for real think it's your babies head.... for four days hanging out down there... you probably should have been on the phone or in labor and delivery a long time ago. That being said I doubt the baby would be crowing four four days, call your Dr to get looked at. You could just be swollen from all the pressure baby is putting on your goods.

Be very careful pooping. Or keep your hands ready to catch the baby.

Ok seriously, if you thought the babies head was just hanging out, why would you walk around for 4 days like that?

If this was me I would have put my hand up there and checked. You can easily feel your cervix and tell if it's closed or not...or if there's a baby head there.

Probably your vulva is swollen.

Hahaha!! Seriously?! Your baby doesn't hang out that far for 4 days!

Omg I'm so glad you posted this!! My son flipped and I can feel his head too when I wipe! I called my OB and she said just to push it back up as long as my water hasn't broken I'm fine.

Is feeling their head when you wipe tied to a weak pelvic floor? Am I the only one finding this very surprising?

What?? You feel the babies head and your midwife said to just push t back up?!?!? Maybe you should get a new doctor?

My water didn't break until the doctor ruptured it at 9cm when her head was almost out! So just keep that in mind, if babies head is coming out, it don't matter if the bag is intact or not!

It's not pressure it just feels really uncomfortable it could be that just swelling he sure can move and it's only sometimes not all the te that's why I haven't gone in I was just worried he might come way too early of he's already so low I still have 8 weeks left
