SHarp /darting pains down below

Ladies I'm 37 weeks n few days ave been getting darting or stabbing pains down below last few days.second babs.head is not engaged.now they not bad pains just uncomfy . Sign of anything starting or babs just getting ready.

Are they like someone is giving you an electric shock in your lady bits?? I got LOADS of pains like that from around 36 weeks with DD. Midwife said it was cervix getting ready. She was born at 38+5.

Yeah it is and like a tapping or pushing too. Consultant said today head not engaged so I thought it might be gettin ready.thks a mil for reply

The baby might keep hitting the nerve - when I was expecting dd1 I swear it felt like she had a pair of sharp scicssors in there! Also the last few weeks I felt like she was nearly half hanging out and I was walking like a geisha, I had horrendeous pressure, but she was still 10 days over - not always a sign of anything I am afraid.

Fells like you're sitting on a knitting needle??? I have that every so often for the last few weeks, it makes me squirm and stand up

Ah girls I'm laughing at the euphemisms! Oracle I guffawed at your geisha walking! The joys of pregnancy!

Thks for replies wishful thinking on my part that things might get moving!!!ah sure time will tell

girls you just brought me back to a day I was out walking with my frind when she was heavily pregnant and she kept having to stop and do a little jump and wiggle to try and stop it - it was so funny.
