Should the whole pregnancy experience become painful after the baby has dropped? At my last antenatal I was 2/5ths engaged and bub seems to have dropped further over the weekend. I am getting pelvic and lower back pains when I move, which feel like my pelvis being wrenched apart. I am also getting baby movements much lower than previous, just above my pubic bone and they are hellishly uncomfortable, feels like every movement is stretching out my lower uterus. Whenever baby moves its head and turns a bit I get stabbing pains in my cervix, they take my breath away. I contacted the midwife and she seemed to think this was normal third trimester stuff but I still have 6 weeks to go and am praying that this isn't what I have to look forward too for the whole time. I was getting more frequent BH over the weekend but that has gone now. No bleeding/ discharge etc, I assume this is all just prelabour stuff.
