24 January 2010 3 Responses

A Parent asks, I am 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant my daughter is breeched and I am having her turned on Wednesday. I have been feeling really tired today and really uncomfortable. I have been having a lot of lower back pain and pains on the sides of my stomach is this normal? What did it feel like the days before you went into labor? And right before the contractions started? Do you always lose your muscus plug?

    To be honest, I didn’t feel any different before I went into labour with both my boys.

    The only thing that I have felt with all my kids was major back pain. I had back labor with all. That is how I knew. My back hurt something terrible.
