Im in my third trimester and lately feeling like a heavy pressure down there, jaise kuch neeche aa raha ho. Heard people use the term bearing down. Just want to understand what it actually means, anyone?
Oh, that feeling is so intense and can be scary if you don't know what it is! It's the actual labor push. Sending you hugs, you are doing great—just keep your gynac informed about any pressure.
Beta, it is the pressure of the baby coming down during labor. If you feel any such heavy pressure in your lower side right now, rest immediately, drink warm water, and call your doctor. Don't lift heavy things ghar pe.
Ugh, it's that intense 'pooping' feeling when you are actually delivering! I was so exhausted during labor, I just wanted a nap, but that bearing down sensation is unstoppable. If you are feeling it early though, call your gynac immediately.
Simply put, it's the pushing motion you do during delivery. If you are experiencing this pressure early, don't ignore it. Sit down, keep your legs elevated, and contact your hospital helpline.
Bearing down is a strong downward pressure felt during delivery. However, feeling this kind of pressure early in pregnancy can be risky. Please check with your gynac immediately to make sure everything is safe.
From what I know, it's the push feeling during final labor. Because of my PCOS, I was always extra careful with any pelvic pressure. If you feel any unusual downward pressure before your due date, call your doctor.
I am currently 28 weeks and sometimes I feel a lot of downward pressure. Is that what bearing down feels like, or is it just the baby's head? Would love to know what others felt.
It basically means that pushing feeling you get during labor, like you're trying to pass motion! 😊 It's your body's natural way of pushing the baby out. But if you feel it too early in pregnancy, definitely tell your doctor right away!
