I had it with isla chica...was very weird....and an incredibly strange sensation.  I didnt get it til i was pretty much well on my way to being fully cooked..so about the same stage as you from what I can remember.

Feels like a dull thud on the inside...feels really loud...i thought everyone heard it lol put it that way.  Bit like a bizarre tugging pulling oooof  type feeling.  Freaked me out a bit as I hadnt had it with tasja...asked the mw about it the following week..and she said it was just braxtons and not to worry about it.

Hi hun

I too had this and as it was my 2nd i had it for the alst few months.... It's due to the pressure inside and that fact that everything is dropping and resting on your femaine sections..... cold flannels to sit on etc helped but unfortuantly i didn't find much else helped, sorry.

Not long to go though....

I'm 27 weeks pregnant with my second and I've had this happen a couple of times. The first time it happened we were on our way to my foetal anatomy scan (23 weeks) and we'd had to park about a quarter of a mile from the hospital because we there were no spaces left in the car park. It kept coming on and it took me so long to walk down this hill that I was almost late for my appointment I actually also had it happen this morning when I was walking back home from taking DD to school. I was fine one minute, then I felt a bump downstairs and just a sudden  and uncomfortable pressure in my lower right side. I walked like a duck all the way back from school, rubbing my lower belly LOL.

One other thing I've noticed that seems to coincide with this is the fact that this little monkey does a lot of kicking downwards. Sure enough she does kick outwards and at my ribs in usual baby fashion, but a heck of a lot of her kicking seems to be aimed at the 'exit door' LOL. George has made it a standing joke that's she's bored of waiting to be born and is trying to break out
