call up nhs direct and they'll either tell you to go to A&E or to see your GP. But if they tell you to see your GP when you phone to make appointment you tell them NHS direct told you to and it moves you up the system.

I didn't have that pain with my 2nd pregnancy after c section. I would also get it checked out. Hope all goes well for you

Phone your Midwife and get an appoitment with her i am 27 weeks pregnant and having the same probs as i only had my last c section 21 months ago and thought i was going to rupture but they say i am having a big boy and the pain is just the pressure

thanks everyone for your advice .as for ringing the midwife i dont have one not allocated to me anyway .i also dont have my maternity notes that they give you im under queen charlottes and they dont give these to u until ur 22 weeks
i had my first baby at the same hospital and had a bad labour hence the c section so i have little or no faith in them (if u know what i mean )when i saw the doctor at my first app they told me that they would request my notes from the other hospital that i gave birth in when i informed the doctor that i gave birth there she just looked at me like i come from another planet .and my doctors dont even have a midwife there either .so i think that im off to the doctors before this baby is born ,thats if i can get an appointment before next may !ill keep you all posted thank you to every one
