I’m 35w1d and had the scariest thing happen last night... had dinner, went to take my plate to the kitchen and was suddenly hit with this immense pain in my lower back, which then transferred to my stomach.

I was so close to tears. Lying on the couch, switching from lying on my back to lying on my side. The pain... I can’t even describe it, tbh.

Managed to undress myself and get in the shower (husband was out getting food & drink for the baby sprinkle we’re having today, and my little brother was cleaning). I sat on the floor of the shower for probably half an hour. Somehow got dressed into my pj’s and relocated back to the lounge room.

The pain eventually stopped (however, it is still kind of niggling a bit). Requesting positive vibes—we have our baby sprinkle today, and I still have four days of work left. OH. Not too mention, my hospital bag isn’t packed, and baby’s clothes still have tags.
