I am 34 weeks I can feel pressure in my pelvic area. My husband feels something what is it?

Question

What he feels is about two inches inside and its hard.

Answer 1

It sounds like a pelvic floor/uterine prolapse. I got one when i pregnant with my first child and I went into a panic and went straight to the hospital thinking that my baby was on its way.  What it is is the weight of the baby putting pressure on your pelvic floor muscles or uterus making them prolapse into the vaginal area.

Is it there when you stand or sit up and disappears when you lie down? If your answer is yes then that's what it definitely sounds like.

The pressure you feel will disappear when the baby is born but you will have to work on strengthening your pelvic floor muscles for the future.

I very much doubt it is the baby's head. Unless you are in labour as the baby's head is protected by the uterus.

If this doesnt sound like you please see a doctor ASAP.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

It's probably the baby. They usually drop in the last couple of weeks of pregnancy. The cervix may not have dilated, and the baby is still totally within the uterus, but the head is now nestled within the pelvic opening instead of above it. You may feel increased pelvic pressure, and some women complain that it’s hard to walk because it feels like the baby’s head is between their legs. Although I don't think I would be "examining" it myself (or via your husband) Leave that to the professionals.

Good Luck & God Bless! CONGRATS!

Answer 3

That's not normal... you need to get in contact with your Dr.  

Answer 4

It may be the baby's head. Tell him to stop feeling in there if he's not a medical professional!~ He could damage something!

Answer 5

You should get it checked out professionally.

It's not normal to feel anything 'hard' 2 inches into your v****a, unless your actually feeling a part of the pelvic bone.
