Question , this is my first and I'm close to having my little guy

So I just sat down on something slightly higher up then a chair and I got a sharp pain in my crouch and I'm unsure if this is normal for 38 weeks and he has dropped alittle bit since I'm not having pressure but this sharp pain came out of no where and I'm confused and slightly concerned about it , what could this be ?

Lighting crotch

@Kendra Budd how long does the pain last for cuase it only seems to stop when I stand up

@Rhiannon so if your baby is sitting lower in your pelvis, you’ll start to feel that pressure, and of course, it feels like a lightning sensation or like some weird pain so changing positions or moving your stomach a little so the baby can move.

@Kendra Budd I poke at him and gently push on him n it still feels like alot of pain compared to the little to no pain when standing or walking

Sounds like when you're sitting he's putting pressure on your cervix. If you're concerned you can always call your provider

@MK that would work if I had a contact number / email or a way to contact her

@Rhiannon can you look up the triage number for the hospital you're delivering at ?

@MK I'm going to be having my baby at medical city in the city over from where I live due to her main office is in that city

@Rhiannon You should be able to find the OB triage number online. Honestly I can't believe they didn't give it to you incase you had concerns

@MK well she's a midwife also I have to relay on what she tell me in my appointments , and what my friends say since she's had a few kids and I mention something she tells me it's possibly such and such , and if it seems a bit to much off for pregnancy she'll tell me I should go in or call and get my appointment moved closer to the soonest to be seen

I also have a midwife, you should still be able to call the OB triage line. It's just the labor and delivery line, you'll probably be connected to a nurse but they could give you info. Again, this was just a suggestion because you seemed concerned.

@MK thank you
