should i be worried?

Question

strong period like cramps at 36 weeks pregnant. Pooping and farting are hard to let go.... anyone relates???

Answer

Maybe dilation starting? Baby could be getting ready to make its debut ;)

Answer

this happened to me at about the same gestation with my 6 mo old daughter. the baby's head is descending into your pelvis (early labor signs) and probably starting to dilate you a bit. it can be EXTREMELY  uncomfortable,  but normal. watch for contractions, or "period like cramps" that come in waves or seem to be consistent. also, anything resembling your mucus plug, or blood. best of luck & speedy delivery and recovery!

Answer

your probably in the early stages of labor. i was the same way. and the pooping thing is bc the baby is getting heavier and pressing against some things. . or Braxton Hick's
