For the past couple of weeks I have had pains in my hips an thighs. At the doc last week she said she was low, low, low,.... whatever that means...she didn't give me any station or anything. Anywho...progressively I have been getting more and more pressure down there in my private area and butt. Today...I felt like I did a million squats because my thighs were hurting a lot. Also,... it's very sore in my lower region and vaginal area and even on the inside...it's getting very uncomfortable to sit....I feel like I am squishing her head. Is this just normal dropping stuff or could this be a sign of labor soon to come? Also... the BH's have become more frequent..when I work...they tend to show up more and sometimes even hurt a little. I have another doc appointment tommorow and I'll see what she says.

Don't say that!!!!! I've been feeling the same things and I'm too early to be doing any gearing up.

My body has been gearing up for a few weeks as well. My LO engaged really early by about 31 weeks. Just think, this is a big job, so it will take our bodies a while to get ready for it. Our babies are also getting heavier which accounts for a lot of the pain and pressure we are feeling down there. It is a totally new sensation, so I think it stands out all the more. I take it as a very good sign. As long as I am not having contractions, my water is leaking, or there is a bloody show, I am just taking it as my body getting warmed up!
