Should I be concerned?

I'm 27 wks & on the description it says I need to recognize preterm labor. & some of it said if I have a lot of pressure in my lower belly its part of preterm labor & I have that like all the time.. is it normal or is it a sign of preterm labor?

In the description you mentioned pre term labor is pressure in the belly area.
You said you are having pressure in pelvic area those two are seperate. Just something to think about.
I think what your feeling could be baby moving down or SPD

It could also be Braxton hicks contractions. They aren't always painful but they can be. As long as it isn't a constant or a steady thing I wouldn't worry much.

It could be the baby putting presure on the pelvic region, that was my case with my first pregnancy. But talk to your doctor.
