Alan I was actually told by the midwives with our third, forth, fifth and now sixth child that they do not need to engage as early as first time babies becuase I have already been well strecthed in that region. See now I get confused, why would the midwives tell me this? I am not disagreeing with you, not at all, I am just annoyed they all said different to me. And although you said all the other things I am whining about are common they are not common for me and this is number six. I guess as I am the one feeling it, I just know its not a common thing for me. Does that make sense. I know all the text books say it is, but physically its not for me being the women. I did find out though that it could be because of my GD that he is on the large size which would cause all this "Overly exadgerated Discomfort"! A big baby would make sense to me seeing I have never experineced it so chronic with five of the othjers. I did a little with number 4 but again she was 9 and a half pounds!

The pain in the bowel is different from jsut pressure like when baby is descending into the cervix. Its more asharp pain. So hard to explain!

lestypuss, omg your hilarious! You poor love! I noticed you a month ahead of me though, so I am feeling this all much early! Hmmm maybe I will go early!

scorpiomum, I am gong to ask for a c-section next Friday when my next prenatal appointment is. I have humed and hard about this and its the best option for "ME"! So really I have now got 6 weeks to go!
