I have been getting pressure in pelvis and sudden twinges in my pelvis randomly and urge to wee. I have been getting burning dull pain in my lower back around tail bone, and very uncomfortable sudden sharp pains in my bum when I sit in certain positions. The burning pain my my back is worsening... And I also I had dioreah yesterday.

Sounds like early labour, although might not be.
Could be hours or days though, so knowing doesn't help much.

Could be anything, possibly a uti not labour! You need to speak to a midwife.

I don't think it's a UTI. I know what they feel like.

It just sounds like the head is engaged to me but call your midwife tomorrow and ask. If things get a lot worse over night then call the maternity ward in your notes.

It sounds like babies head is engaging but run any symptoms past the midwife. All of what you've described sound like typical third trimester symptoms but it's always better to be safe and get them checked out.

Oops, sorry if I panicked you, didn't realise you were only 35 weeks. Hope everything turned out okay.

It doesn’t sound like labour to me. Always call your midwife if you’re concerned about anything.
