Lightning crotch?

Question

Im due December 23rd and last night I had pains at the grocery store that I believe were lightning crotch, meaning she’s moving head down. Is anyone else experiencing these? I want to know if I should expect an early delivery or if this is normal. I don’t have any (or at least strong) Braxton Hicks though.

Answer

I've been getting lightning crotch since like 20 weeks and I'm 34 weeks now. It's not a sign of labor though, it's just a normal thing

Answer

I got it early with my first pregnancy and only had my baby early because I had to be induced for medical reasons. My induction took forever because the baby had no desire to come out. I wouldn’t worry about early labor.

Answer

What is lightning crotch? 😂😂 It sounds like a dance move 🕺🏻 but on a more serious note what do these feel like? (FTM here - so no clue 🙈)

Answer

Like SPD? If that’s what you’re referring to it isn’t a harbinger if premature labor.

Answer

Just means baby is pushing on a nerve
