I am 38 weeks pregnant today. 9 days ago i lost my mucus plug.
When i walk or just even get up off the sofa, out of bed to pop to the toilet or the kitchen, i get really sharp pains down below. It almost feels like ripping and tearing in my lower tummy to my groin area.
I also keep getting really painful braxton hick contractions which ive been getting bad for a week now and my back keeps cramping like period pains. each time it happens, the pains are that bad in my back and tummy, i keep thinking im in labour but obviously not as its been a week since ive been getting them and they are not regular.
Any idea what this is... thankyou :) hope you can help x
Sorry, forgot to mention, the babys head is fully engaged at the furthest. Thats what my midwife said at appointment on monday :)
