Weird things going on...will be 36 weeks on monday?

Question

ok...i'm getting so irritated. I have had more frequent bowels... braxton hicks that make me feel like i have to go number 2.. my back has been hurting on and off..nothing really timeable but it gets to wear i cant walk or even sit. seems everyday it gets worse. my hips hurt.. ive noticed more of my mucus plug coming out this week.. um lets see..... sometimes i have constant period cramping.. last week i was a fingertip dilated and 50 percent effaced. it seems i'm more irritable the past couple days (i feel so bad for my hubby) anyway...what is going on?! the doctor said a while ago he sees me being early... but last week he said i will probably make it full term.. does that mean earliest full term or what? BTW- baby is breech so i know its not her head causing the pains

Answer 1

Call your doctor- sounds as if you are going into labor.  I had both of my babies at 36 weeks so you should be fine.  But these are significant signs and you need to call the doctor.

Answer 2

im having the same problems. i was told that alot of your hips hurting is ligament pains because your hips are getting ready to spread. i dnt know about the plug bc i havent lost mine i dont think :) i was told to drink tons of water and pee every hour or try too bc that will help with the braxton hicks. i would just keep a close eye on the back pains bc i heard that labor starts in the back and goes to the front.
