I have regular stabbing, shooting, tightening pains all over my stomach...... i am 35 weeks pregnant today and i am actually booked to have c-section in 4weeks time but i am getting a little concerned about these pains....... sometimes they are just at the top of the bump but i am not sure if those are just painful indegestion..... it's too early for labour isn't it? I am small for dates as it is so i am starting to get worried now but i don't want to ring my midwife or hospital just yet as i have my 17mth old asleep in bed and dont want to be disturbing him while he is sleeping, plus i don't rea;;y have anywhere for him to go at such short notice...... any advice would be great

Sorry hit post too soon.

Call Mw and get some reassurance because you are so early.

Good luck!

Call your MW.

To my knowledge you don't get pain, as such, with braxton hicks.

it isnt unbearable pain just somethin gi havent had before..... i have been outside in the garden all day and been brushing up which may be the reason behind not being able to turn my body without moving my feet........ i have been in and out of hospital with this pregnancy so many times that i really could do without another trip, especially in the middle of the night..... obviously should things become unbearable and more of a cause for concern i will seek medical advice but for now i just want to see what people would recommend and if anyone else has experinced the same as me...... i notice the pain at the top pf bump is actually as i breathe in quite hard...... is this just there not being much room and organs being squashed up together?x
