sharp uterus pain.... help!!!


So I'm 34 weeks pregnant and I'm having sharp pain in my uterus. It feels like my child is pulling on other sides of it. Somewhat like scratching it. I also get a lot of pressure on my uterus everytime I stand up. And I get cramps somewhat like bowl contractions.but they don't last long. Are these signs of labor?.

The sharp pain is your round ligament stretching. I'm getting it now too really bad. This is normal for this stage in the pregnancy

I'd say that's more stretching pains than anything. Could also be how you're feeling braxton hicks?
Baby is getting heavy at this point so it's putting lots of strain on that poor old uterus!

In the same boat right now. 34 weeks too. With my experience with 2 other pregnancies i dont think its labor. Just the discomfort u get In the last few weeks. But if the cramping feeling gets much worse or happens at regular intervals id call the doc and atleast let them know whats going on
