Overwhelming feeling

brittany

So I am 29+4 weeks pregnant with my third baby and for some reason I have the overwhelming feeling that I will be going to to labor very soon. Now with my other children I did not have this feeling at all so now I’m nervous about going into labor super early. Do any of you guys have this feeling?

Feel the same. My first was five days early and honestly taking care of a 14 month old while pregnant is a workout! I’m on my hands and knees three times a day cleaning up after the high chair so I feel like this baby is definitely going to be early.

Yes!!! I have the same feeling. I’m 31 weeks on Friday and I’m so terrified she’s going to come early. She’s due 23rd of April and I go on maternity leave at the start of April when I’m 36/37 weeks. I’m so scared she’s going to come before that. Had terrible Braxton hicks which for me are painful. And I’m so not ready. This is my first baby and I’ve never been around kids and never done a nappy or fed a baby or anything. It’s just so frustrating and so scary. Glad I’m not alone with this feeling though. Just hope family/home issues get resolved before she’s here

Yes!! I’m 31+4, and measuring at least a week ahead and my first came at 37+6 and I just feel off. I can’t remember how I felt with my first because no one ever expected me to go early but I just have this strange feeling it’s coming sooner than we’ve planned though we’re planning on 38 weeks I just have this feeling it could be sooner which is overwhelming, while ready to be done working I don’t have enough time off to go into labor earlier than 37 weeks.

Yes! I am 29+3 and feel that way. I was over 40 weeks with my first and induced at 39 so i don’t even have a history of early labor, but i can’t shake this feeling that this baby is coming super early and it’s making me very nervous bc I’m not ready. Glad i am not alone.

Oh I do! I also get all panicked knowing that I’ll be 37 weeks at the end of March and he could come then, it’s not that far out! I think maybe for me though it’s because my second was born at 36+6 and my labor was super quick so I just feel like I’ll go into labor early this time too.
