38 weeks 3cm dilates and 50 effaced why do i feel sharp pain in my pelvis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be baby: For a woman who is 38 weeks and having sharp pains in the pelvis - if the pain feels like it is up the vagina it is likely the baby's head bouncing on your cervix that is causing the sharp pains. It can also be the weight of the baby on the pelvic floor as the baby drops. If the pains last 30-60 seconds and come and go it could be contractions.
