I'm 37 weeks pregnant with my first child, and I don't go to the doc again until Friday (if I make it that far). I think that it was yesterday that I began feeling extreme pressure in my lower abdomen-especially when I walk around. I feel like I can barely walk! I also have a sharp pain that feels like exactly where I think my cervix is. The pain also travels through to my lower back. My mother and my husband both noticed today that the baby looks like she may have dropped. The last time I was checked, I was 50% effaced and dialated 1 cm. I've been dialated at 1cm for about 3 weeks now. Could this sharp pain be ripening of the cervix? Is my time near? Contractions started early this morning, and have continued irregularly for the rest of the day. I feel like I've been pregnant for years!
