Feeling so much pressure 33 weeks!!
So basically I had my first child in December last year and fell pregnant 3/4 months after and am due with second end of next month 31st January. My son came on time pretty much I felt like he dropped and all this pressure in my pelvis and on bladder the week before he came! He was due 23rd December and contractions started 21st and had him 22nd. Very text book. But this time I've been feeling that pressure feeling now at 33 weeks and at my 32 week scan appointment the scan lady said he is head down now which is what I said to my partner I bet is happening based on how I've been feeling down there and I was right!!! I've also been getting mild period like cramps which I know could be the Braxton Hicks or just ligament stretching however I didn't have this atall at the later stages with my first it all just went down on the 21st along with loosing my mucus plug before that I remember feeling totally normal other than the pressure feeling from him being so low. So I guess what I'm asking is for anyone's experiences at this stage with their second baby? I'm worried he will come too early ?? I really want to enjoy Christmas this year pain free and stuff my face ahahaha. Does it sound normal? I'm not in pain as such just very very uncomfortable for 33 weeks I don't remember feeling like this with first at this point in pregnancy yes I felt heavier and terrible back ache from the weight pulling me but not cramps and his head being so low.
