From The Pregnancy Book by Wm and Martha Sears– a wonderful, all-around book for pregnancy, I might add:
In the chapter “The Ninth Month:”
Experiencing new pelvic pressures. As your baby descends into your pelvic cavity, you may find yourself prone to sharp, stabbing pains … in the middle of your pelvic bone, making it uncomfortable to walk. p.339
And the whole paragraph continues about such pains. And the low-down, frontal pressure– described exactly!
Thank you. What I’m experiencing is normal. … Isn’t it funny that even the fourth time, I still wonder, worry and experience things differently? Or I just forget each time?
I think the baby dropped last Saturday night, too. My belly is lower.
Yes, I know exactly what you mean-you’d think by now we’d have this pregnancy thing down, right? 🙂 So glad you got the reassurance you needed. I can’t believe it’s almost time! Your last prayer letter went to my spam for some crazy reason, so I just got it. And when I saw September as your due date, I flipped out. What? Almost there….already?? Of course, to you, I’m sure it has gone by more slowly. Praying for you and baby, dear friend! Love you!
