For the last couple of days I have been alternating between lower back pain and shocking period pain. Today the 'period pain' has been the worst with also a little 'bum pain' (you know the pain like you are being stabbed in your bottom and it makes you pull a face like you've been sucking on a lemon). The pain got intense once today and took me by surprise so i actually yelled like a woman in labour - but since then i have only had smaller twinges - although I do feel kinda odd 'down there'. Also with pains like i have run a marathon and pulled the muscles in my groinal area.
i should say that i've had endometriosis for the past 10 years so i am very in tune with pains down there and have a quite a high pain threshold...which i am sure is about to be put to the test.
I saw my ob on monday and he had 3/5 on my card (which i know means how down the baby's head is).
i've got 13 days to go and this is my first baby...do you think she's on her way? I almost feel a little disappointed when the pains stop cos i just cant wait anymore!!!
