39 weeks pregnant--anyone else experience this?
I'm 39 weeks pregnant and the end is in sight! The last few days I've been feeling a lot of pressure/soreness (not contractions, it more constant) in the area inside my thighs/around the pelvic floor. It's a little hard to describe. It's almost like a sore muscle.
Has anyone else had this? Is it just the baby descending? I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow but maybe I should try to get seen today?

YES! I think it's the pelvis and ligaments getting more limber and expanding.

I felt like that for a week. I don't think it warrants a trip to the doctor but you may want to mention it at your next visit.

Yes. The pressure is tremendous toward the end. I always felt like the baby was going to drop out when I walked (we're rarely that lucky, it does require at least 1/2 a push).
Yeah! You're almost there!

ITA! I had something very similar at the end of my pregnancy. Rest frequently and put your feet up when you are sitting down and it may help. You're almost there...congrats!

Thank you for all your replies! It makes me feel better to know that other women experienced similar things.
