it feels like i have to poop..I NEED .ADVICE

ok im shy of 39 weeks and i have pressure and it feels like i half to poop wat does that mean?

i think you could be going into labor maybe...theres a difference in pressure between dropping and that. if its a "poop" like nonother beware

The baby has dropped! I felt like that when I was in labor.

maybe it means you have to poop?

Quoting nursemaya *MJL:“ maybe it means you have to poop?”

lmao...i asked her to be sure in pm.

only on a preggo site can "i have to poop" get so many different responses.

That was what my labour was like, up until I delivered, except I was experiencing mild period pains at the same time. Labour was 30 minutes from start to end (well 34 minutes), with no form of pain relief. Hopefully you get an easy labour like I did. Good-luck.

lol everytime i had preterm labor or real labor my body would *ahem* want to clean itself out. I would feel like i had to poop but not really and then i would contract more intensly and eventually it would *ahem * happen and it was all because of contractions. I think i kinda sounded snotty - i only meant it half for real half joking. it could be her body attempting to clean house before labor kicks in for real

thats a good point. i didnt know that happened...self cleansing that is. i was induced. i never got any of the labor signs...plug, water, contractions, BH...i got screwed...but kind of the easy way out.

sometimes when I get constipated and have to poop I get contractions and they hurt. Some womens bodies clean out before labor, your close so it could be baby engaging or something. Not to sure LOL
either way good luck mama!

oy...i so thought sooner was better when i was preggo but its not.
sleep is better. and the last of it you see for a long time.

i have the same question! today ive felt  like i have to poop all day everytime i go i just pee and the feeling is mostly there when im up and walking i dunno wat that means

All my use-to-be preggo friends told me they had to felt pressure and had to poop when they were are almost in labor.

so did you give birth or just take a wicked mean dump?!
