You’re almost there!! Girl, never forget there’s a 5-9 lbs human resting on your guts. Your bowels are squishing their way thru you. Good luck!

I took Tums with gas relief for upset stomach and it helped (although D1 is right — there’s only so much you can do with a baby rearranging your insides).
Just so you are prepared, I went into spontaneous labor with my most recent pregnancy and, girl, I spent so much time on the toilet in the 48-72 hours before birth. I also had a lot of pressure at night before going to sleep which I believe was the lightening.
I also has stomach issues that started one week before I went into labor (I gave birth at almost 35 weeks) and I projectile vomited before my waters broke 😂
I had that from 36 weeks and baby didn't come until 42 weeks!
I had this for the last month of pregnancy - it’s a “sign of labor” but doesn’t mean that labor is anywhere close, lol
Yeah.. I didn’t experience this cause my girl didn’t want to come out but definitely good to have the essentials ready by now just in case - like bassinet set up, car seat ready to go, hospital bag packed etc. Good luck! And home stretch! Also be prepared to be constipated for a long while after .. so enjoy those poops!
