I'm 38 weeks tommorow and today, I have this terrible pressure on my bum. I've tried multiple times to go to the bathroom but it literally becomes terribly useless and painful and unbearable. I wanted to cry :( I laid down and my lower back still aches. Is this normal?



The same thing happened to my friend. She thought she had to go to the bathroom (#2) and when her mom took her to the hospital she was 8cm already! I'd go to L&D
If you're still feeling that way I'd call the doctor, a friend of mine had that feeling for days and turned out she was in labor! Hope you're feeling better!
It's like the worst constipation feeling ever, mixed with cramps. It lessens when I lay down to just back pain and cramps :(
