it is bad??? please let me know!

I'm 34 weeks. An my baby is 5lbs 18" as of last week. My OB-GYN said at the beginning that my expected due date is sept 30th give or take 2 weeks. Well I've been having some pains that are kinda like contractions but not completely the same an don't last very long. An my baby has no room in my tummy when she moves it hurts like she's trying to punch through. If I go into labor soon will that be bad or what? Please let me know.

I had my first at 35 weeks 6 days he was 5lbs 8 oz and spent 4 hours in nicu. If you deliver before 37 weeks your baby is considered premature. My doc wants to deliver between 37 and 38 weeks due to high blood pressure and that would have me deliver sometime between sept 6th and the 13th. Hope this helps!

I know the 37 week thing. But my doc said give or take 2 weeks that she would be born.. So I could be due in a week or 2 ...right?...  She didn't know exactly when she would be born the 30th was a guess.. around Christmas I went to planned parenthood an they Said id be due round the 12th.. If she's 5lbs now, wouldn't age be ok like not preemie...??

well if you were to go into labor contractions only they will give you a shot to stop it . however if your water breaks they may give you a shot of a steroid for baby's lungs . you are full term at 37 weeks .
