    It can be normal... many women will say that they feel as though baby is about to drop out. You may find some relief by using an exercise ball to sit on. If the pressure seems to come and go, and you feel some tightening in your abdomen, it could be due to braxton hicks contractions as well.

    Certainly if it causes you concern, or if you feel as though it is more frequent than it should be, contact your midwife or doctor.
