First babies tend to drop before labor, sometimes as much as 6 weeks before. On the other hand second,third... babies tend to drop during active labor. Good luck ↑ |

My hubby asked his buddy at work about it and he told him that his wife noticed their baby drop 3 months before her due date. And he was born a month and a half premature and already weighed 8lbs. lol ↑ |

I'm 37 weeks today and my baby dropped at about the same time. I did start having braxton hick contractions after she dropped though. but I don't think you have anything to worry about. Good luck! ↑ |

Thanks for that reassurance Melissa. I don't think it's anything to worry about either...I'm pretty sure that's what is supposed to happen at this time it's just so crazy! She's coming! Makes things so much more real. I think I've had Braxton Hicks contractions once so far and that was a couple weeks ago so maybe I will start to get them more now. Anyway, I'll have to wait to talk to my Doctor next week at my appointment because she isn't returning my call...big surprise. :P ↑ |

I can still see my belly button. lol Although I've had a hard time getting a good look for a while now. She's just much lower and I've noticed it's causing me some stomache pains including gas and diarrhea. Charming...I know. :P ↑ |

Angela, you may know all ready but diarrhea is a sign of your body cleaning out for delivery. I would get ready. Congrats too! I start wk 35 tommorrow. ↑ |

Jill...don't say that! lol...it's too soon. I read that diarrhea can occur when getting ready to go into labour but I chose to semi-ignore that. lol I'm only 33 weeks...it's too soon! Besides, today my tummy feels fine and so do I asides from a slight headache. How are you feeling at week 35? ↑ |

well i have had diarreah the whole pregnancy.... better than constipation if you ask me!!!! but now that shes dropped, i dont have long i can hold it... i have to find a bathroom immediatelly! one day last week i left home feeling fine and pulled onto the highway and AS SOON as i did that i had to go AT ONCE and uturned back to my house and it was all i could do to run-waddle to the toilet... i so almost didnt make it! i guess with all that pressure in your groin it makes it almost impossible to hold.... for me it hasnt been a sign of labor. ↑ |

Jenn, I know exactly what you are talking about. Although I haven't had much for diarrhea since that one day...I have about 2.5 seconds before I crap myself! lol Thank God today is my last day of work and I'll be at home or at my parents for the rest of the pregnancy. If I feel it coming on I gotta make a mad dash to the bathroom and I barely make it. lol...kinda embarrassing. ↑ |
