Should I go in?? 36w 6d pregnant .

Question

I’ve been having sex quite a bit lately (couple times a day for a few days) & I’ve been having an immense amount of pressure in my bum/lower back & lower stomach yesterday & today. I’ve also have been pooping a lot this past week but even when I don’t have to go anymore I still feel pressure in my lower back/bum & lower stomach. what could this be? Should I go in to be checked?

Answer

Sounds like Braxton hicks. They can feel like that with no pain, just pressure and tightening. I wouldn’t go in unless you’re having painful contractions, but of course always follow your body and gut, you know your body more than anyone. I’ve had those feelings and no progression in weeks 🙄 but everyone is different of course.  good luck to you on the rest of your pregnancy and your delivery . If you do go in, please update!
