Increased pressure and lightning crotch

I am 39+3 (due date 16th) and my night time movements have become so much more palpable and the lightning crotch is non stop. Anyone feeling the same? I didn’t lose mucus plug, was told cervix is closed 2 days ago but tonight it’s feeling super intense whichever position I am in!

Yes exactly the same. I’m due 14th and I just lost my mucus plug, pains have a ramped up a lot more the last hour.

Hey darling, I’m also due on 16th October and I was literally thinking the same! If baby keeps moving like that i might lose my mucus plug any minute haha.

I am going to call the MAU I think, it’s been an hour or more of non stop movement and it’s very uncomfortable but not contractions. Is it the same for you?

He is usually a very active baby, so I’m not worried too much about it, but tonight he’s been hyper active and the lightening crotch is nearly unbearable today! No contractions or any other signs of labour tho!

I'm due 30th and I'm feeling the same. The lightening crotch is now incredibly painful and feels like it's every half hour. Everytime she moves now it hurts. No mucus plug lost yet. But bowel activity has changed. Feel the pain in both crotch and bowel too. First pregnancy so I'm bloody clueless too.

Yeah same here, no idea but it’s definitely not the usual intensity. If it goes on like this I definitely can’t fall asleep but they’re not contractions

I've been having this for the past week or 2 too, I think it's just normal end of pregnancy fun!

Sounds like baby putting pressure on your cervix

40+5 here, been having this for a few weeks now and sadly no sign of baby’s arrival yet 🥲 obv we’re all difference but just setting expectations that it can go on for a while!

@Hannah yeah who knows 😬🥹
