"I am 35 weeks pregnant and I have pressure in my rectum, especially when I lean forward... is this the beginning of labor?"

The pressure in the rectum that you are feeling may be common especially towards the end of pregnancy, but it is not necessarily a sign of the beginning of labor. Some common signs of labor include water breaking suddenly or continuously, vaginal bleeding, and contractions. It is best to consult with your healthcare provider for a more accurate assessment. Best of luck with your delivery!
