Hey girls question... so I’m a ftm, I’m 38 weeks+5 days. I’ve been having cramping for about 2-3 weeks, last night I was awake all night with cramping and I felt her head a lot lower down. This morning my stomach feels very tight and achy, and I’m nauseous. Could this be early labor? What should I look out for?
@angel81198, that’s good!! Keep me updated! If you ever wanna talk I’m a message away !
@alyssaa08, thankfully I’m graduated and I’m already on my maternity leave from work so she can come whenever she wants!
@angel81198, off topic but I almost had my daughter at school, I was testing & I was spotting that’s when I knew she was ready to come into the big world . 😭
@angel81198, well congratulations! 😘 you’re gonna cry when you see you’re beautiful queen in youre arms !(:
@angel81198, trust me you’re gonna want it ! My mom said the same , but I still got it . 😂 I was scared to get it because “you can’t move when you’re getting it “ but I did just fine ! Are you having a boy or girl ?
@alyssaa08, no I’m planning on an unmedicated birth, mainly because I hate needles 😂 and also my mom is very against epidurals, she said “it’s the easy way out, you don’t get to Feel your baby being born”
@angel81198, omg lol! 😂 well if you’re getting really bad back pain than you should just get admitted but everyone’s different. Are you planing on getting the epidural?
@alyssaa08, I know I hate it. I wish they would check me Tbh because I’m curious and it might help me go into labor 😂
@alyssaa08, my doctors office refuses to check you until you are overdo. 🙄
@alyssaa08, my mom thinks I’m going to have an easy labor because I have been super active my whole pregnancy, I just don’t know what contractions feel like..
I went into labor at 38 weeks , & I started spotting so I went to the hospital . I was 3cm . I had my daughter the same day.
It might be contractions. Those are when you belly tightens and you start feeling pain on your lower back or you feel you can’t breathe on top of your belly. If you feel that and it’s constant then yes you’re close to early labor and you should either call or go to L&D so they can check you out 😊
