It can be cervix but also things like a slight pinched nerve etc, baby is big now, space is limited so that unfortunately means things are being moved, pinched, pushed, stretched and so on, this can cause some nasty pains in the vagina and pelvic area. I had them with both of my previous pregnancies, worse during the second than the first, probably because my daughter stayed breech until very close to delivery and liked to push down with her feet. I am sad to say its pretty normal and totally sucky. Plus as you get closer and closer to birth day your cervix will do some pretty crazy stuff and for some women its painful kind of a pinched nerve slash muscle spasm that causes and shooting pain in the vagina. Do your kegels and try stretching your back once in a while on hands and knees and occasionally knees and elbows to help drift baby up out of pelvis for a while to give things a break. Best of luck, you don't have long now!

I agree with Kitten about your cervix starting to change/starting to dilate.

Yes!! I had that with my second pregnancy. OMG it was awful. I asked my ob at the time and she looked at me like I was crazy!! I know exactly what you are feeling. I think it's pretty normal, my sister complained about it too. Gl I'm sure everything is okay :)

Your cervix may be starting to change. Could be a number of things really.
