Q: Pains

I am now expierencing pains in my stomach and my vagina. Its like sharp pains. I have been having tons of braxton contractions like crazy and they hurt alot now. When I use to have them they didnt hurt. Is this normal. I also have lots of pressure like the baby is pushing down. I was told by a friend that it could be premature labor. Please let me know if any of this is normal. Thanks

Hi
How far along are you? I was braxton hicks queen. I was even admitted to the hospital for them. Where exactly are the contractions on your tummy? In your vagina, is it more like your cervix area or the wall area? Try and be specific.

Okay!
I saw you are due feb 27th. Is this your first baby? The baby may be dropping. That's okay. You need to callyour doctor whenever youhave a question. If ever in doubt, go to the hospital. You will know if it's somethingis not right, trust me. Just calm down. Youare in your last 2 months and the baby is growng fast. I didn't really look prego untill the last month. The pain may be you uterus stretching. But like I said, only you will know the difference. If you feel bad stay off your feet. I am a hairdresser, so I know what rest means, it's crucial. I hope your okay!
