I'm at my 34th week of pregnancy for my 4th child. Compared to the last three pregnancies, this one makes me feel like the baby wants to drop out right now! To walk comfortably, I have to support my tummy (i'm 5'3.5", 173 pounds right now).

Silly question here - can my muscles loosen to the point that it kicks off labor? I've had 3 prior csections (this will be the 4th), and am worried about my uterus dropping to my knees (figuratively, I hope! :-) ).

Is this a possibility?

Thanks in advance,

btl
