38 weeks pregnant, but I have a question... I been getting this painful almost muscle cramp where the black line is, along with shooting pain in my vagina. When my side starts hurting my stomach tights up. Could this just be growing/stretching pains or Braxton Hicks. From what I read contractions where like cramps and really low. Also any relief to this? I try moving around or stretching but nothing is helping 😭😭
That sounds more like baby dropping and hips stretching which happens around this time to get baby in position. Also probably a little Braxton Hicks. If it doesn’t stop or let up by moving or changing positions, intensifies in pain, and can be timed in regular intervals then it’s real contractions.
@snichole421, for me, contractions got worse and worse over time. It started as period cramps then went to unbearable pain, then it was like a pain that took your breath away (which is when I got my epidural, so I couldn’t feel if they got worse or not after that lol). But a good way to tell if they’re real is if you’re whole belly tightens up like a rock and then releases when it’s done.. and real labor will always progress and get more intense.. so you can’t stop those contractions. You’re just getting a good practice run in mama.. maybe try a nice warm bath and warm compresses ☺️
@mama.kay, thank you so much for the advice means a lot especially it being this late!!
@snichole421, of course love.. I hope you get some relief, baby is almost here! 🥰
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

Birthing ball, lots of water, lay with your feet elevated, or lay with a pillow under your hips may help a little but there’s not much relief that you can get. You’re in the home stretch!
