i feel like that constantly! it's driving me insane! my pelvis is ouchy and i feel like the baby has her head almost out but no where near at the same time! i'm also REALLY swollen downstairs which isnt' helping. i'm guessing your bubba may just be head down, bum up nice and early and trying to get itself nicely engaged. i have had the discomfort like that for weeks, but it's only this week that we actuallly had the doc say she was engaged so i think she was just trying...


Nell - i WISH the head down low was stopping the breathing issues and rib pain! i think my bubba is really long (or just a general pain!) - the pain in my ribs is driving me batty about now - half the time it feels like she has cracked one of my ribs around the back - i know she hasn't (have had cracked ribs and it doesn't come and go like that) - but ouchies! she obviously thinks its great to push on my back and cause me pain (which gets worse when i hiccup - a frequent occurence! lol)
