Lots of pressure

Tristan

Just looking to ease some mild concerns hopefully. I am 25w 5days and my daughter is officially head down which is super exciting because my first pregnancy my daughter stayed breech until birth and we had to have a C-section. Anyways I’m not sure if this is related to her position then being head down but the last week I’ve felt a lot of pressure on my pelvis, like having a full bladder and I’ve been holding it for hours but then I go to the bathroom and nothing happens so I know it’s not actually needing to pee but it feels uncomfortable all day long. It’s not so bad if I’m sitting but I’m definitely more uncomfortable this time around. But I guess I’m just wondering if this is all normal if she’s head down or if I should be more careful. I just had a Drs appointment today and everything looked great so I’m probably just overthinking it because it’s a new feeling.

It’s crazy how different my two pregnancies have been, with my daughter I was nauseous everyday until birth and this time zero days being sick. More Braxton hicks this time around that I didn’t have last time at all either I just expected them to be more similar but they couldn’t be more different!
