Sounds like you probably just need to stay hydrated and make sure and take some time to put your feet up. The pain is probably from baby sitting lower. I'm 36+5 and baby has dropped and OMG my pelvis is killing me! I'm a nurse and work night shift so I totally hear ya on the being on your feet too much! Gotta keep chugging along, my dd is Nov 6 and my last day of work is scheduled for Nov 3, unless he/she decides to come early...I think I may be crazy ;) At least my unit is only one floor up from l&d, oh the silly things we mommies do! Good luck to you!!! We're all getting so close now!

Every woman is different, I would call your dr and get checked or at least have him know the symptoms to see what he thinks is best.
