Should I see a doctor?

I’ll admit I have been under a lot of stress lately, physically with work and leaving a domestic relationship and having to leave my son and trouble finding a place to stay and balancing a new night shift job, I sleep on a love seat couch, and I barely get sleep due to the loudness, I’ve been to embarrassed to go to a shelter but anyways I am 26 weeks and 4 days pregnant, I took the day off work tonight because after I came home from a 30 minute outing, walked to go look at some apartments for myself, but did do anything strenuous, but I’ve been very sore down there since we got home, I got a sharp like feeling inside my vagina, baby feels like she’s gonna fall out and my lower back and hips and lower belly keep having aches that come and go, like waves, it hurts to walk, and when I sit down it is still coming and going.. I didn’t have any discharge or anything but it does hurt..

You know your body best so if you think you should see a doctor, then do it. You can always just call a midwife or on call nurse and see what they say first. I get pain like this after every time I go for a walk. I’m almost 25 weeks and I get really bad aches down stairs when I go for a walk around the block. This is my fourth baby though so I figured my body has just had enough. But I just rest when I get back (I don’t want to give up walking as it’s the only peace I get for the day and exercise) usually sit on the couch for ten minutes and chug a heap of water and after an hour or so I feel okay again. Good luck.

I’m sorry you’re going through all of this. I actually have the same symptoms and they seem to only come about when I’ve been on my feet all day. It almost feels as if there’s hella pressure in my vagina and in my pelvic floor muscles lol.After doing some research, I read about Pelvic Girdle Pain and it seemed to be what I was feeling. Today I am 28+3, still working and I battle that pain EVERYDAY. I had a prenatal visit today and I didn’t even really care to mention it to the doctor because he told me the only thing that should bring me into labor and delivery is leaking fluid, cramps, or bleeding.I’m not telling you not to go in, but I’m just saying they’d probably just end up sending you home haha.Good luck! Pray for me and I’ll pray for you cuz this pain ain’t no joooke! 😭
