I am 39 weeks pregnant. I went to my OBGYN last Tuesday and he informed me that I was 2 cm dilated (but he never told me if I was enfaced or not) and that things were moving along great and that he probually wouldn't see me by my next appointment (which is tomorrow) !
2 days after ( Thursday ) I lost my mucus plug.
I have been getting really bad lower pressure pains in my lower abdomen ( like near my pubic bone ) ! I get them really bad when I stand up! I do also get them when I'm sitting, but I feel it more standing. The pains I get aren't on going. They come and go. Now when I get the pains my stomach tightens right up. I tried to time them but there so far apart and irregular. Now my husband also noticed today that my stomach looks lower (so i guess i might be dropping) !
Could this be just the baby getting ready? Would labour be approaching soon? Would I be in the beginging stages of labour?

Sounds like everything is moving right along. You probably are having some contractions but that doesn't mean that you will go at any minute. Each woman is different. Just keep an eye on things...if you start to have more contractions like 5 minutes apart then you should call the doctor or go in.
For example...I lost my plug the night before I had my daughter. And with one of my sons I went from a 2 to a 5 in about 2 hours. Each woman is different...that is why I suggest taking it easy and just watch what is going on.
I always knew when I was in labor when I could "no longer sleep through the pain & contractions."
Good luck & an early congrats!

while you're particularly no longer waiting there is often adoption. i would not ever advise abortion and that i wish you won't evaluate it. beginning administration isn't one hundred% effectual and you in all likelihood led to it to be ineffective. do no longer blame the youngster on your mistake. you're sexually lively and have been with this guy for 6 years. as long as you have jobs you're in simple terms as waiting as everyone else. in case you % to maintain the toddler you will adore it with all your heart and by no ability be apologetic approximately your determination even in the adventure that your existence's a sprint greater sturdy. in case you supply it up for adoption it will be stressful yet somebody else ought to offer your baby the existence you by no ability ought to.

It sounds like you are in the early stages, but keep in mind, first babies can take FOREVER to come! I was at home w/ my first for over 36 hours having pains. Just remember, there is light at the end of the tunnel!!!! You are almost there!
