Question please answer

The past three things I've posted nobody's answering.

How do you tell the difference between the pressure from babies head and contractions? Im 36+5... And the pressure down there hurts SO bad sometimes. Pain in lower back and down around abdomen. The pressure happens so much during the day and night... Like about 10 times in an hour and pretty painful.

Pretty painful is nowhere close to what you'll feel when your baby is ready to come out . It will feel like extreme tight knots in your belly when it's time

Preasure from head is down low, contractions happen uptop and on sides... you can also have back labor to with contractions, you are prob having contractions ive been having them for a week now and they are very regular and hurt... my dr said it was normal for the last month and just try to deal with it she also gave me procardia to stop them cuz she wants baby to stay another week and it didnt really help much. 35+3 other ?s?
