pressure

I was wondering if anyone else has had so much pressure that you can't even sit or lay.. I've been inn tears all day cause it hurts. I know I'm 3 cm dilated (I went into preterm at 33 Weeks and spent 5 days in hospital) and Dr said yesterday that his head was right there again and stopped my meds (I'm about to hit 36 Weeks). But I'm not contracting or that I can feel.. does anyone know what will happen to help this?? Could this mean I'm dilating again? Dr said he would pop my water at 4 cm so..

I'm 25+6 and I'm a pansy lol but I have had a painful belly since around 17-18 weeks I think.I ddefinitely can't lie on my back and nothing I do makes the belly stop hurting. At my 20 week ultrasound my little guy was head down so maybe that makes the belly more prone to pain?
If you've put on more weight I'd say that definitely could contribute, I've gained eight pounds in 3-4 weeks and I feel like I'm being tortured.
It could be your little one trying to find a comfy position and/or get ready for labor, especially if you have a grumpy baby to begin with. Can you take Tylenol or something and see if it helps with the pain?
