Pain and stress! Help!!

Its been super busy at work and really stressful. My job is not only mentally but also physically stressful. At home the hubby has been well... We've been arguing a lot this week. My question is, amidst all this my stomach does tighten although I don't know if it is Braxton hicks or gas and baby turning. But during my most stressful times I get horrible lower back pain... Like right now. I should mention that I don't otherwise usually have back pain, only when stressed. I have also been getting funny discomforts or sharp pains in lower stomach but they go just as quickly. Feels as if baby has long nails and reached out to scratch my insides and then stops. Anyeay,  Should I be concerned or is this normal? My next doc appointement is At the end of this month.

Thanks you're right... *Sigh*. Sometimes it feels like it's easier said than done.

Babies can feel stress and react to it. Try to relax more. I know easier said than done. Pick your battles wisely for your little one's sake.
