Scared I'll break my water or something??

Madi

Alright ladies, I'm 36 weeks tomorrow. I'm also a FTM so this is my first time dealing with this stuff. Every time I use the restroom, I'm scared to use to much force when using the potty because it almost feels like I could push the baby right out. Like its almost like I can feel her getting ready or something. I know that your body prepares and what not but I genuinely get worried if I use to much pressure while using the restroom my water will break just because of the feeling I'm getting. This isnt just a worry it's a feeling in my cervix or in my pelvis. I'm not really sure how what to do or if this is normal near the end. Anyone else deal with this??

Also heres a bump picture for fun

If only childbirth (and getting it to start) were that easy. I think it’s safe to say for the vast majority of us, we wish we could go into labor just by using too much force in the bathroom. While I can’t say for sure that the two are never related, I can say it’s not common. Even if it were to happen, at 36 weeks you’re nearly full term, so you and baby should be fine. So, enjoy your bathroom time.
