Groin and Cervix Pain

For the past week Ive been getting really sharp cervix pains, like someone has a knife up there Im guessing this is cos his head is almost fully engaged! But Ive also been getting really sore pains in my groin, its usally when I go to get up or walk somewhere, it almost feels like cramp in my groin, it stops me in my tracks and I have to hobble to a seat or stand still until it passes, would this be things stretching and be to do with his head being almost fully engaged?

Im definitly waddling when I walk now!

Yeah nothiong helps it, tonight Ive tried pacing around, sitting still lying down, but nothing helps. The groin pain and cervix pain together is like really uncomfy Plus the pressure on that "area" ahh not long to go now though lol

Oh I still vividly remember THAT pain!! I got it the last few weeks of pregnancy. Not nice at all! I'd be waddling along, and bang! it would hit, stop me in my tracks. I'd have to lean against the nearest wall/door frame and cross my legs and lean over. Some days I'd be scared to walk around in fear I'd get them! Definitely reminds you, that you don't have long to go!!.

YAY!

I got that too and geez it hurts! There were times it was so intense and sudden I'd actually cry out with the pain.
The groin pain is probably to do with everything loosening up and opening up to make room for him. Joyful!
Hang in there chicky, soon all of this will be a distant memory and you'll be looking back in awe that your body actually carried and nurtured the gorgeous wee man you're holding

oooh not nice Sheza! I'm getting pains similiar and my m/wife said on thursday it it the babys head down low.

Yep I can sympathise with you - I get lots of it. The groin pain is particularly bad at night and makes walking to the loo really difficult. One night it was so bad DP had to help me to the loo as I could hardly walk. And those stabbing pains in the cervix are just horrible.

Oooh yes those pains are nasty, I keep telling myself they'l go away once bubs is born, only to be replaced with uterus cramping

I remember that pain! Have you tried a deep(not too hot) bath so you can float in it? That helped the groin pain a little at least. Not long to go now!

The pools today were nice, I sat on the step in the really hot pool so that just my legs and bum were in the water so that was nice for that area lol

I got the cervix and groin pain driving home though, I had to lift myself off my seat at times, lucky I wasnt driving!

I havent tried a bath yet, might do that though.

I remember it happening from about 34 wks on with my first. This time its started last week (24 wks). Incredibly painful and uncomfortable especially at night. More pillows! I found that hot pools or a bath didnt help me - I kept floating and that put pressure on my stomach muscles - made them tighten. I totally sympathise with you. Still, you know that the countdown is on when you get them.
