August Moms!

Hey August moms,
Just wanted to check in with everyone and see how your all doing?
This week as dragged for me, i have been on that toilet more times this week then ever in my life.   when is my baby girl ever going to come!
Iheard that loose stool is a sign that labour is just round the corner, and seen as though im living on the toilet at the minute and labour still seems so far away, im wondering if anybody else has experianced any change there?
i havealso beenhaving a little aching sensation in the publie bone area, its not asbadas period aches but around the same kind of feeling and my BH are occuring a little more then usual but nothing to intense!
Would love to hear of anyones pre-labour systems...  

Yeah I am due the day before you and I have loose stool and I am having contractions every 5 minutes. My doctor put me on the monitor last Wednesday and said I was contracting and then Friday I was still contracting and he checked me and I wasnt dialated at all. I went back to the doctors on Monday and they were stronger, so I go back again Friday to see wats up. I am not feeling them regularly in my stomache but I have constant painfull back labor! I also have the pain in my pubic bone area, it feels like its bruised and black and blue. I think he is in position in my pelvis! I cant wait till he is here!

ehhh.....I have been having those pains that you are talking bout....and it seems if he gets any lower that hes just going to fall out, but i still havent had any bh yet. I am hoping that he bakes a lil longer because im starting classes the july 28 through the 2 and i wanna go lol!

I'm on the toilet all the time too it seems especially at night to empty my bladder. Other than that I'm not getting anywhere it seems. Not dilated, couldn't tell you what a BH contraction feels like, havent dropped, why!?  it's a little frustrating seeing people due a week & more after you already experiencing these things
I have been feeling extremely light barley noticeable cramping, hopefully it means something!

when you standfrom being on the toiletdo you feel like your going to fall back down because of the pressure? lol! its a wierd feeling!
i have BH all the time, but to be honest there is no pain what so ever, i just get this little feeling that something is going on and i touch my belly and realise its all hard, i startednoticing themmore now, some times i think im having one and i realise its just the babies butt sticking out... sounds stupid, but it i always have to double check!
shes been in the same position for 6 weeks now, and i think she has engaged (if thats what it is called) because my hips and pubic bone really hurts!

Oh its nothing to worry about... everyone is different, and people experiance things at different stages.. i was really late feeling kicks and stuff! its annoying reading about what others are going through as you kind of feel like there is somthing wrong, but youll be fine, if you look around there will be people just like you..

Yeah i had all that and they started getting stronger and more painful but the contractions in my abdomen arent constant they are every now and then but when they come they are really painful. But yeah it is a weird feeling. Make sure you tell your doctor all of this thats what I did and thats how I found out I was contracting!

i do have an aching back, but its not at the bottom, its proberly more like the back of my ribs.... so im guessing its just everything pushing up on me!
babies feet have been sticking out of my left side for a very long time now, i dont think shes had much room to move around shes been there for about 6 weeks... plenty of wiggles and stretches though.. is the any change in babies movement before labour? what exactually is back labour? and how is it different from stomac?

when yall have back pain does it kinda feel like a kiddney infection. I went to my doctor to see if I had one and I didnt so I just thought it might be because of the baby

Quoting juggalette_mommy2be:“ when yall have back pain does it kinda feel like a kiddney infection. I went to my doctor to see if I had one and I didnt so I just thought it might be because of the baby”

Hmm... mine doesnt but im thinking mine is more like the back of my ribs aching! you should mention that to your doctor...  

I have but she said no that it wasnt a kiddney infection...So I dont know what else it could be

Ohhh, well did she not give you any ideas of what else it could be! hmm! i have no idea, prob just your insides getting squashed and baby kicking hell out of them! lol! oh the joys!   i think i have been quite lucky with the aches and pains, i havnt really suffered much (touch wood i didnt just jinx myself) but when i read everyone elses little signs and symptoms i kinda get a little jeaouls and think why am i not getting this! everyones different i surpose!
