Shooting stabbing pains

[Rach8484]

Hi all I’m 39 weeks pregnant today and I literally cannot walk I’m crying in pain with lightening/stabbing pains down below. I’ve had them for weeks but they last a few mins and go away generally but today I can’t even stand or walk I know it’s normal and my baby pressing my nerves but did anyone have this and labour followed or anything u can’t keep putting up with this for a week or more it’s so bad so bad

Thanks all

I’m 36 nearly 37 weeks and I get these too!! They really take my breath away! I asked the midwife about them and she said it completely normal 😩 and it is probably the baby making it’s way down!!

Sorry can’t help but following this post as I’m 36 weeks and feet have been getting worst and worst they are horrific and don’t know how much more I can take of them 😭 same as me whenever I ask the midwife she just says they are completely normal xx
