Can you feel when you're about to go into labor? My body is giving out so easily. This last month I couldn't sleep for anything but for the last 3 days I've been bout ready to fall asleep, driving, shopping, standing up doing anything. And my belly feels like a bag that has something heavy in the bottom that's bout to bust through. I feel like if I sneeze or cough too hard or squat too low my water is gonna break.
Mine keeps kicking my in the ribs. But is that what dropping feels like? My other daughter didnt drop I dont think. My belly just feels weighed down.
@freckly, that’s what I have dealt with all day and am still dealing with. Lol.
Baby dropping is them engaging in the pelvis. Also referred to as lightening. This is what happens when they’re ready (or nearly ready) to be born. Sometimes it doesn’t happen until labor, other times it could happen weeks before. Just depends on baby.
@earthy_momma thanks! I never knew what people meant by their baby dropped and how they could tell. I'm headed to sleep though bc this is the first time in a month or so that I've been tired before midnight. 😂
I'm not contracting or anything I dont think. My pelvic bones just feel so loose. And I have an appt tomorrow to see if I'm dilated any. I'm just wondering bc i feel off and I'm not due for another 2.5 weeks. I'm just trying to prepare myself so I'm not taken by surprise if I go early.
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.
Exact same pattern I experienced with the not sleeping and then the super tired. But instead of her dropping, this kid moved up and is causing the worst heartburn of my life. Lol.
