Should I go to L&D? Or I’m just being paranoid

Question

Im 37w. My lower back is killing me. im getting some pressure down below but I was thinking it’s because baby is really low. I cannot even sit down at this point it literally feels like Im squishing everything in my tummy and just so uncomfortable I have to lay down. It feels like I need to urinate but when I go to the bathroom nothing comes out feels like I have to push. Snd I just feel so weird my body feels weird idk how to explain it. 
The reason why I think I’m being paranoid is because I’m not getting any contractions just normal BH every 1hr or so nor my water hasn’t broken so I really don’t want to bug the staff in L&D

Answer

Call and speak with them to be sure

Answer

Just sounds like normal end of pregnancy uncomfortableness, but it’s their job to check you out if you think something is wrong so it wouldn’t be wasting anyones time. If you feel like you would have peace of mind being checked out then it doesn’t hurt to go in, if you think it can wait till morning then call your ob in the morning and see if they can squeeze you in

Answer

If you feel like you need to poop that’s the baby. Pressure is normal though. Labor feels like timed period cramps in the beginning. If It will make you feel better to talk to a nurse you should just call. Good luck
