    In terrible pain

    I think Beez has engaged. Or close to it.
    I can't sit properly, and when I stand up I struggle not to cry because of the pressure and pain in my 'downstairs'.

    I'm feeling a bit scared, as I'm only 25+6.
    I'm in pain and have so much to do today.
    I'm scared about going into pre-term labour again.

    Does it sound like he's engaged?

    Possibly, or he's on a nerve. DD engaged at 26ish weeks and stayed put, but loads of babies engage and pop in and out for the rest of their gestation, so based on that alone I wouldn't worry too much

    I don't know hun, probably won't hurt to give your care giver a call and see what they think. But in the meantime, put your feet up (well as best you can with a toddler), pop the TV on for your DD and try and rest for an hours or so.

    I posted a similar thread a few days ago. Pressure is pretty much gone now so I think she must have changed position on me. Having said that, I'm also 3cm dilated and on bedrest so I would definitely go and get checked out just to be sure.

    Hope its nothing to worry about for you.

    Bub has shifted slightly so the pain isn't as bad now. Had a lay down on the bed while DD occupied herself by throwing all the washing off.
    Beez is also really active which makes me happy.

    Still getting the odd 'stabby pain' downstairs. If things worsen tonight I'll go get checked out. I'll have to rely on my dad to take me to town (1.5hours away) as DH is away working til Wednesday.

    Just an update to say everything is OK now. Beez has flipped to traverse (s/he's an acrobat!) and I feel really good.

    Silently stalking you but am glad to hear you are feeling better.

    Ive been getting alot of pressure down low as well and have had to stop what im doing to rest which makes such a difference.
