.......or at least it feels like it. with my first son I carried him really low and never really had discomfort. With my second son (37wks preg) when I stand for more than like 15 min it feels as if the skin un my upper abdomen is going to tear.it feels almost like a knife is inside me about to cut through the top of my uterus. NORMAL???it seems as if he is pushing his butt out really hard cause there is this hard lump (I know it is him cause when i push on it, it moves) any suggestions would really help!

Yeah, i guess that goes along with the territory sorta speak. I know a company called " AVON" HAS REALLY GREAT LOTION THAT WORKS CAUSE I USE it too cause of my diabetes , it works really GREAT . IT'S CALLED "AVON MOSITURE THERAPY IN THE TEAR DROP PART OF THE TUBE IT'S THE WORD INTENSIVE , IT works very well , just put some on my arms and hands and after even one use you can tell a difference . the malls sell it and of course you may have to look up the number to avon and get someone to bring you some. I think the cost is anywhere between $4-7 dollars kinda high but works really good like i said . hope you will try it.

You poor woman! Well at this point now stuff like this is unfortunately going to happen. Ask the doc what you can do. My ob gyn use to tell me that to get your baby to move away form where it is, try rubbing the opposite end. I don't know if that is possible for you, but worth a shot! Good Luck to you, Congratulation's!!

Try drinking more water and don't sit upright. Try a recliner or pillow behind ur lower back and lean against it. I'm carrying really high and my whole belly feels like its going to rupture if i sit or stand up right for too long.

Your muscles are stretched to the limit. And now that you 37 weeks the baby has less and less room. you should try to stay off you feet as much as possible. but just think 37 weeks that almost done. congrats!!!!
if you feel like the pain in abnormal call you gyn.

Take a warm bath or submerge in a pool to alleviate the pressure.
And repeat to yourself that it will be over soon and you will have a beautiful life in your hands and for the rest of your life.
