Vaginal pressure in the early second trimester?

[Bumpblessing4]

Anyone else have a feeling of pressure or heaviness (not painful) as soon as 16 weeks? I've had it for a week or two. I don't recall having it this soon before (or maybe at all). I'm not sure if my mind and body are playing tricks on me because I'm worried about the possibility of incompetent cervix. I've delivered three full term babies before and had one first trimester abortion (at age 16) and one D&C (for a missed miscarriage) before I had my firstborn, so I didn't have an incompetent cervix before. But this spring, I had another D&C (for a blighted ovum) and I'm worried that a third cervical dilation may have been too much for my cervix. I don't see my OB again for two more weeks and worry she would think I'm crazy for worrying about this since I carried my three children to term and have only had one more D&C since then. I'm hoping to hear stories of vaginal/perineal pressure in the early second trimester from some of you (or stories of full term pregnancies after three or more cervical dilation procedures). Thanks

Well this is my first pregnancy so I have nothing to compare to but I have a very heavy feeling in my lower stomach like where my pubic bone is. Feels like im carring something really low there. It is somewhat painfull but more annoying?!? Im going to ask Dr about it at my apt tomorrow. It only started at about 24 weeks....

Hello there I'm sure it's fine but I'd get it checked if I were you, it will put your mind at ease and as they say better safe than sorry ^.^

Id ask Dr asap cause I had pressure at 17 weeks & went into preterm labor at 18 weeks & was diagnosed with incompetent cervix.

I've had it on and off since week 15-16. I spend some days feeling "heavy". A couple of days ago in the middle of the night I went to the loo and almost felt something drop! I think it's just changes and my insides should feel heavier. I'm also growing a big bump lately!

yeahhh i got that with dd, and the bigger baby gets the more uncomfortable and more cm you get, but no matter how many children you have its still concerns you, its still your baby that you think what if. i hope you get listened to, hopefully its nothing major but clearly its something that needs to be monitored atleast!

i had her at 38weeks i was induced after all that lol but i was given some sort of injection but at 24 weeks when it happened i was also given steriod shots as they said it would help her lungs or something, i knew i was in labour as i got period like cramps in hoo haa, scariest moment and i knew she was too tiny to come yet. they did end up saying about sewing my cervix if it was to keep happening. luckily i didnt need this!! xx

i know ha ha typical really, but also at 33 weeks she managed to turn breech i nearly died, couldnt bring myself to the thought of have a csec, had a consultant app at 35 weeks booking me a csec then 37 weeks she moved back head down and with all my other problems i was going on and on at them to get her out so i was induced at 38 weeks, worth every bit though shes a diamond, im typing this whilst i hear oh tell her off for drawing on the wall ha ha xx

 

[Bumpblessing4]

Thanks for your replies. I did not feel the pressure yesterday and my hubby is letting me rest (when I am home) until my 19 week ultrasound in ten days. I am going to ask the tech to measure my cervical length with the transvaginal probe after they do the anatomy scan with the transabdominal probe first. Do you think they can do that for me when I ask without a specific separate order from the OB?
