So I woke up at 1am, 3am, and then finally got up for the day at 6am this morning with my back hurting so bad I couldn’t get comfortable. Getting up did not help with the back pain.

I’ve also had period like cramps all day, along with tightening in my stomach (just like my Braxton Hicks for the last 10 weeks have been).

I’m 38 weeks this week... lost my mucus plug a week ago and he dropped two weeks ago.

I’ve been feeling EXHAUSTED the last 3 days, like barely able to get out of bed some days tired. I have also had random bouts of nausea and diarrhea... The last two days there has been so much pressure down low it hurts to do anything. Like literally feels like a 10lb weight pushing on my insides between my pelvic bones.

Moms that have gone through labor, does it seem like I’m getting close, or could it still be 2 more weeks?! I just can’t imagine going that much longer..but these “contractions” don’t feel intense enough for me to be worried yet. I’ve had so many people tell me “you will just know” but what if I don’t? 😅
