I'll be 33 weeks preggo with second baby on satuday, but have been feeling wierd lately?

Question

I'm 32 weeks and 5 days pregnant with my second. i had my first baby october 18th 2007. it's just that for the past 2 or 3 days i've been having alot of stomach tighning, i'm guessing thats braxton hicks. i never really had them with my first. maybe just like a few, but that was like 3 weeks b4 i had the baby. but like last night i had alot of them. and when i whent to use the bathroom to pee or do #2 i felt alot of pressure. a week ago my tail bone started hurting a week ago like if the baby was pusing down.. i'm still getting the stomach tightning, it comes and goes. today i guess they kind of calmed down, but still feel the pressure down there even when i'm just sitting down or pee. and the v****a feels like sore.is this ok?

also alot of cramps. and i know someone told me that with second pregancy it very common to get them alot at the end

Answer 1

I think I would give my dr a call and ask him if he thinks I should be checked. It probably is braxton-hicks contractions but you may be starting labor early or its also possible that you are further along than you thought.

Do you feel the baby moving any differently? The dr may want to know that to see if possibly your baby is getting into position and that is why you felt so much pressure and the cramping.

Answer 2

I would think you should call the doctor. When you are pregnant dont ever second guess your self. The reason why I say is because I was pregnant with my 3rd( 5 years after my son) and I was "leaking fuild" and I lost my daughter @ 19.5 weeks. Due do a blood clot in her cord. I thought I was fine healthy young woman. WRONG. I have 2 blood clotting disorders along with I dont absorb folic acid. So when it comes to having  a child " call the doc", go get checked, make sure everything is ok. Oh and have a doppler at home.

GOOD LUCK...
