sharp stabbing pain in uterus?

yesterday I felt a sharp stabbing pain kinda like if something was ripping in the inside! I felt it three times, when i was sitting down so i laid down and it went away, i sat back up and i had felt it again so i just relaxed and stayed laid down. Is it normal? I havent felt it today, and I know for a fact my bby girl is head down. I did have mild cramps but nothing to severe it lasted for two hours or so  on and off but it went away. I know those are BH. but the ripping feeling threw me off a lil. Is it cause her head is putting pressure there in my uterus? Im 34 plus 2 days.

hopefully this post has sent as im pretty new to this lol...i get the exact same feelings/pains...im 30 weeks + 2...and my baby girl is also head down...it happens when i lie down or stand up and walk for too long..it almost makes me jump lol very weird isnt it!!... as her head is 'free' - as the midwife called it..it must be the pressure of the babys head and every time they move so i wouldnt worry too much :) x

I haven't had it in my lower stomach, but right above my rib cage, under my breasts on the left side and in the middle. I told my Dr it literally felt like the inside of my stomach was ripping apart :/ and it felt hot. he said it was my stomach stretching and contracting as it grows.
