What's the Eurostar like these days?

35 weeks 6 days and having bad back pains with menstrual like feeling in the vagina area..whats going on?

• This is my first pregnancy and I am not sure what to expect. My doctor told me at my last visit that my baby was head down and he didn't give me three more week till delivery. its been a week and a half my belly has dropped dramatically and I'm feeling very painful lower backaches with minor contractions. They are very spaced out and not strong at all. I also feel like I am having a period (discomfort) in the vaginal area. Should I worry?

• Answer:

  The closer you get to delivery the more you dilate. I had the same issue. It's just your body getting ready to give birth. The baby is probably on a nerve or something. I'm sorry the last few weeks of pregnancy are miserable.
