I am 5'2 and weighed 100 pounds before getting pregnant. I am in so much pain. My ribs feel like there gonna split in half and my hips have barely started hurting yesterday. Sometimes it feels like she's gonna rip out of my belly. It's horrible.

But other than that, I'm 33 weeks. lately I've been having a lot more bowel movements than usual. My nausea has come back about two weeks ago. I'll have BH contractions every now and then but they have actually stopped. I used to have them a lot more in the beginning of my pregnancy. It's so discouraging. I want her to come early but then I have this feeling she will definitely come late.

LOL I did not believe I was in labor. I had an appt with my OB at 5pm and he was like I think you should go to L&D. My contractions were3-5 min apart and lasted 25-30 sec, so I thought it was just BH again. I came home and had pizza, went to the hospital and only laid in bed for 4 hours

Were referring to the mucus plug or bloody show. It's the "plug" blocks the opening of the cervix keeping all the bacteria and bad stuff out. But not everyone will see it. It can come out before labor, during, or even after. It looks like thick mucus that can be clear, slightly pink, or brown tinged. Everyones different.

Here's a picture of one.

It's weird and painful lol, I think I was having braxton hicks today, not sure - but it bloody hurt haha my little one feels more like he's going to rip through my tummy rather than come out through my vagina haha! That's a point, do any of you guys think that you're too small to give birth naturally - I have tiny hips, my hips are smaller than my 11 year old sisters' hips and I don't think my baby can fit through such a small space do you reckon I should ask a doctor about it? Lol, that picture was gross, not sure I want to see that come from me lol ^_^ I hope your pregnancies are going and will go well   xxx

Aww your tiny like me! I'm 4'9 and weighed 100 lbs before pregnancy as well. I know what you mean, when she rolls around she digs into either my pelvic area or my ribs its so uncomfortable   My SO always gets scared when he hears me shout "OW!" outta no where lol. Same here, except I've just started getting my BH contractions, occasionally they hurt which is weird. I want her to come early too, but not too early maybe 2 weeks early. I feel like she will though!

It was even better that I pushed 2 times and he was out!!! With my daughter I was in labor for 13 hours after my water broke and pushed for 20 min! I like to think I was blessed with one easy one 

anyone experience period type cramping? im 31wk 5d with my second. never went into labor with my 1st. i was induced and on pitocine but my water never broke. i never had pain med cuz i just felt like i was having some bad period cramps?? ive been having really bad and painful BH since 22wks and my dr just says to drink water. for the past 2 days ive been feeling like im about to have a really bad period and it feels worse when i stand or move fast... do yall think its just that i need more water or stretching? some times its on one side and sometimes both at the same time.
