36 weeks pregnant.?

Question

I am currently just over 36 weeks pregnant. I have had soft bowel movements (not diarhea) for about 1 week now, more frequent braxton hicks contractions and I have been very active the last few days due to needing to get the baby new things. In the past 2 days I have noticed that when I walk or turn I have a pain in my pubic area very low. I have an OB appt. tomorrow but I'm just curious as to know what you all have to say about what it could be I'm feeling. Has the baby dropped? Could I be close to labor? I'm an anxious mommy, lol.

Answer 1

It could be that you are almost do because when I was 8 months I felt dat I could not walk cuz I felt as if it was going to come out already,I walked funny too,I used to walk a lot,to school every morning to da store well any where I had to go ill walk,this actually hepls because it made it easy for me when I gave birth,good luck!

Answer 2

I'm 36 & 1/2 weeks too - I find that if i have busy days when i do too much I get more braxton hicks and they are more painful. I have even had some bouts that lasted hours at 6-10 minutes apart, but they weren't getting worse, just sort of lingering. It wasn't labor and didn't dilate or change anything, just really uncomfortable. I also notice that i have more pain and he seems to be really low but still nothing is happening. You just need to start slowing way down for this last month. So just take it easy!

Answer 3

you could basically be close to labor but i asure u if things get worse you should see you doctor for help
